Hindustan Zinc has achieved another milestone in responsible production with its Rampura Agucha Mine - the world's largest underground zinc-lead mine, now becoming India's first Zinc Mark certified mine. Zinc Mark is a globally recognised assurance framework that validates responsible zinc production against internationally benchmarked Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) standards, responsible sourcing practices, and value chain transparency.
The certification marks a significant milestone for India's mining sector while further strengthening Hindustan Zinc's integrated approach towards responsible production across its value chain, enabling end-to-end responsible zinc production from mining to smelting. The achievement follows the company's recent Zinc Mark certification for its Chanderiya Smelting Complex, making it the first company in India to offer responsibly sourced zinc across the given production chain.
The Zinc Mark certification is awarded following an independent third-party assessment under the Copper Mark Assurance Framework, verifying Rampura Agucha's conformance with internationally recognised responsible production standard across key environmental, social, and governance parameters. The certification reflects the company's commitment to globally benchmarked sustainability standards, operational transparency, and responsible sourcing across the value chain.

Gold prices also remained under pressure, with spot gold falling 1.65% to $4,574.10 per ounce, its lowest level in nearly a week.
Precious metals weakened after stronger-than-expected US inflation data heightened expectations that interest rates could remain elevated for longer. US wholesale inflation recorded its fastest rise since 2022 in April, while consumer inflation saw its sharpest increase since 2023.
The higher inflation readings strengthened the US dollar and pushed benchmark 10-year Treasury yields near one-year highs, reducing the appeal of non-yielding assets such as gold and silver.
Silver prices were further impacted by profit taking after the recent rally, which had been driven by speculative interest in industrial metals and expectations of tighter supply conditions.
Investor sentiment also remained cautious amid continuing geopolitical tensions in West Asia, which kept crude oil prices elevated. Concerns over disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global energy shipping route, added to fears of persistent energy inflation.
Elevated crude oil prices could sustain inflationary pressures globally and increase the likelihood of tighter monetary policy, weighing further on precious metals.

Hindustan Zinc has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Group Nirmal to set up a zinc wire manufacturing facility at the company's flagship Zinc Industrial Park at Khankhala, Bhilwara district of Rajasthan. The collaboration further strengthens Hindustan Zinc's long-term vision of building a robust downstream zinc manufacturing ecosystem in India focused on high-value industrial applications.
Under the agreement, Group Nirmal will manufacture zinc wire products using Hindustan Zinc's Special High Grade (SHG) zinc, catering to sectors such as infrastructure, renewable energy, automotive and industrial engineering. Zinc wire is a critical input for thermal spray coating and metallizing processes, where it is melted and sprayed onto steel surfaces to form a protective zinc coating. This process provides durable anti-corrosion protection to steel structures and critical assets including bridges, transmission towers, railways, ports, pipelines and industrial installations exposed to aggressive environmental conditions. These coatings significantly enhance structural longevity, improve operational reliability and reduce lifecycle maintenance requirements, making them an increasingly preferred solution for sustainable infrastructure protection.
