Summary
GlobalData's Zinc Mining Market Analysis including Reserves, Production, Operating, Developing and Exploration Assets, Demand Drivers, Key Players and Forecasts, 2021-2026 provides a comprehensive coverage on the global zinc industry.

After recovering from COVID-19 in 2021, global zinc production declined by a marginal 1.2% to 12.8 million tonnes (Mt) in 2022. Peru and Australia were the major contributors to global zinc production decline in 2022, with combined output from these countries falling from 2.8Mt in 2021 to 2.7Mt in 2022. Elsewhere, production fell in Canada (-12.4%), Russia (-4.9%), and China (-0.3%), although increases in production from the US, Mexico, and India helped offset these declines, with total production rising from 2.2Mt in 2021 to 2.3Mt in 2022. Fresh COVID-19 restrictions, particularly in China, supply issues and a bleak economic outlook caused volatility in the zinc market for the majority of 2022.
Global zinc production is expected to recover in 2023, albeit by a marginal 2.0% increase over 2022.
