The Chanderiya Smelting Complex in Chittorgarh district stands as the world's second-largest singlelocation integrated Zinc smelting complex, boasting a Zinc production capacity of 558,000 tonnes and a Lead production capacity of 85,000 tonnes per annum. It is complemented by captive power plants generating 234 MW, along with additional green power through waste heat recovery boilers.
The Dariba Smelting Complex in Rajsamand district has a production capacity of 250,000 tonnes of Zinc and 125,000 tonnes of Lead per annum. Notably, it is self-sufficient with Zinc and Lead smelters and captive power plants of 170 MW strategically positioned near the Sindesar Khurd Mine and Rajpura Dariba Mine. Debari, in Udaipur district, houses India's oldest Zinc smelter with a Zinc metal production capacity of 88,000 tonnes per annum. Additionally, the Zinc, Lead, and Silver metal refinery in Pantnagar can produce 800 metric tonnes of Silver annually. These facilities collectively underscore Hindustan Zinc Limited's prominent position in the metal production industry.
