Zinc Slab

Zinc slabs are a type of intermediate form of zinc that is produced in nonferrous base metal refineries. They are classified under the supply class "Nonferrous Base Metal Refinery And Intermediate Forms" and belong to the supply group "Ores, Minerals, And Their Primary Products."

Zinc slabs are typically rectangular in shape and have a flat surface. They are produced by refining zinc ore through a series of processes, including smelting and purification. The resulting molten zinc is then poured into molds to form solid slabs.

Zinc slabs are an important raw material in various industries, including the manufacturing of galvanized steel, brass, and zinc-based alloys. They are also used in the production of zinc oxide, which is used in the manufacturing of rubber, ceramics, and other products.

These slabs are often transported to other facilities for further processing or used directly in the production of various zinc-based products. They are typically stored and transported in a controlled environment to prevent oxidation and maintain their quality.

Overall, zinc slabs play a crucial role in the supply chain of nonferrous base metals and are an essential component in the production of various industrial and consumer goods.
