- Nyrstar NV Nyrstar NV is a global multi-metals producer engaged in mining, smelting, and processing of zinc, lead, precious metals including silver and gold, and critical metals such as antimony, germanium, indium, and bismuth; its core products encompass refined zinc and zinc alloys, refined market lead (99.97% and 99.99%), lead-antimony alloys, copperised-lead alloys, calcium-lead alloys, calcium-tin-lead alloys, lead concentrate, sulphuric acid, and various by-products. The company operates metals processing facilities and mines across Europe (Belgium, Netherlands, France, Germany, Norway), the Americas (United States, Canada, Mexico, Peru, Chile, Honduras), Australia, and Tunisia, serving industries including construction, infrastructure, transportation, electronics, renewable energy, defense, and high-technology manufacturing with a focus on sustainable sourcing and production. Founded in 2007 and headquartered in Budel-Dorplein, Netherlands, with its operating business wholly owned by Trafigura, Nyrstar maintains market-leading positions in zinc and lead while targeting expansion in critical minerals. Recent developments include the successful casting of first antimony metal from a pilot plant at its Port Pirie facility in November 2025, receipt of non-binding financing support from Export Finance Australia in October 2025 for antimony production and critical metals investments, transitionary funding secured from Australian federal and state governments in August 2025 to sustain operations and advance smelter rebuilds and critical metals feasibility studies, and a 25% production reduction at Hobart Zinc Operations in March 2025.
