Environmental remarks Total world resources 144000000 tonnes. Resource Index 20 year. World production Canada 17%, Australia 11%, CIS 11%, China 8% and rest distributed over 49 countries. The transport to Rotterdam is corresponding to the distance accoording to the world production. Zinc is mainly found underground. The average metal content of the ore is 4%. Here is assumed that 25 % scrap is used. See also remarks about Magnesium, Aluminium and Copper.
