Abstract

Installations for lead smelting in this smelter were completed in 1951 and operation was started in 1952.On account of the shortage of ores the smelting is done alternately with copper and lead. Crude lead thus produced is sent to the Besshi Refinery and is refined into electrorefined lead.
