Abstract

The article focuses on the contracts awarded to CIMIC Group firms Sedgman and Leighton Asia for the establishment of India’s first zinc tailings recycling facility at Rampura Agucha Mines in Rajasthan. Hindustan Zinc has engaged these firms for engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) services, with Sedgman responsible for detailed engineering and offshore equipment procurement, while Leighton Asia will manage onshore procurement and construction. This facility aims to utilize advanced processing technologies to recover residual metals, such as zinc and silver, from previously processed tailings, contributing to Hindustan Zinc's goal of doubling its production capacity. The project involves an investment of up to Rs 3,823 crore and is expected to be completed within 28 months. [Extracted from the article]
