Analyzing the US Zinc Industry
![](/report_cover/3782/analyzing_us_zinc_industry_en.gif)
The USA’s dominance of the global zinc market has increased with mines in Alaska accounting for more than 50% of the USA’s zinc and lead. The newly commissioned Red Dog Mine in Alaska is set to become one of the world’s largest lead zinc mines. Major producers in the USA include Pasminco, Asarco, The Doe Run Company and Teck Cominco. Alaska, Missouri, and Tennessee accounted for 97% of domestic mine output; the Red Dog Mine in Alaska alone accounted for about three-fourths of total U.S. production.
