Zinc and Cu are micro-nutrients required in biochemical reactions, but their excessive concentrations lead to toxicity (World Health Organization et al., 1996). In soils, distinguishing between the natural and anthropogenic origins of Pb, Zn and Cu is still a challenge as pedogenetic processes redistribute metals within soil profiles and alter ...

Zinc mining process. More than 80% of zinc is extracted from underground mines. 8% of zinc is mined in open pits, while the remaining 12% is mined by these two methods. Once removed from the soil, the concentrate is baked at a temperature of 950 degrees Celsius, which oxidizes zinc, sulfur and iron. The zinc and iron oxides will be …
