Zinc Ore
Reliable. High-Grade
Didwaniya Group supplies premium quality Zinc Ore sourced from trusted mines, ensuring high zinc content and purity. Our ore is meticulously processed and tested to meet global industry standards, catering to the metallurgical, chemical, and manufacturing sectors worldwide.
Zinc ore is a naturally occurring mineral rich in zinc, primarily extracted from zinc sulfide (sphalerite) deposits. It is a vital raw material in the production of zinc metal, which is extensively used for galvanization, alloy production, and chemical applications. Zinc ore deposits are mined carefully to preserve the mineral quality and ensure optimum zinc yield through beneficiation processes.
India is one of the prominent producers of zinc ore, with several well-established mining regions delivering ore with high zinc concentration. The ore is supplied globally for smelting and refining operations, supporting industries such as construction, automotive, electronics, and agriculture.
Characteristics
Zinc Content: Typically 45% to 55% zinc by weight, depending on ore grade
Appearance: Dark gray to black crystalline mineral with a metallic luster
Density: Approximately 3.9 to 4.1 g/cm³
Texture: Often found in massive, granular, or crystalline form
Impurities: May contain small quantities of iron, cadmium, lead, or sulfur compounds
Moisture Content: Low, generally below 5% after processing
Application
Zinc ore is primarily used as the raw input for zinc metal production through smelting. The extracted zinc is widely applied in corrosion-resistant galvanizing of steel, production of brass and other alloys, battery manufacturing, and chemical industries for making zinc oxide and other compounds. Additionally, zinc’s role in agriculture as a micronutrient fertilizer and in pharmaceuticals underlines the broad industrial significance of zinc ore sourced by Didwaniya Group.
Storage Condition
Store zinc ore in clean, dry, and well-ventilated warehouses protected from moisture and contamination. Maintain a relative humidity below 65% and avoid exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to preserve mineral quality.
