Nyrstar's management has a strategy aimed at positioning the business for a sustainable future as a leading metals processing business. Through its deep market insight and unique processing capabilities, Nyrstar aims to generate superior returns by extracting the maximum value inherent in the mineral resources and by-products it processes.
Accordingly, Nyrstar has developed a coordinated approach to redeveloping and operating its asset portfolio to optimise the concentrate feed into its smelters, maximise minor and precious metal extraction, and enhance the margins of its end-product mix. To realise its strategy, management has determined the following strategic priorities:
- maintain Nyrstar’s strong safety performance by improving visible safety leadership
- optimise the zinc smelters to deliver their full potential, underpinned by operational stability
