We have further accelerated our digitalisation efforts to aid in our business
efficiency & safety. With last twelve months run-rate for both mined &
refined metal comfortably sustaining above one million tonnes, we are fully
geared to deliver another stellar performance this year. In-line with our
commitment to net zero by 2050, I am happy to share that we have signed a Power
Delivery Agreement for sourcing up to 200 MW renewable energy, which will avoid
1.2 million MT of carbon emission.”
Mr Sandeep Modi, Deputy
& Interim CFO, said:
“We continue to maintain our cost leadership in the global zinc cost curve
despite spiralling energy prices and mounting inflationary pressures. With our
proactive investments in automation & digitalisation along with razor sharp
focus on cost optimisation initiatives & improvement in overall
efficiencies, we are confident to deliver superior returns to our
shareholders.”
Operational Performance
Mined
metal production for the quarter was at 255 kt, up 2.8% y-o-y on account of
better grades and improved mill recoveries. On a sequential basis mined metal
production grew by 1.4% largely on account of better grades. Overall H1 FY23
mined metal production was 507 kt, an increase of 8.0% y-o-y owing to increased
ore production, further supported by better grades and improved operational
efficiencies.
Integrated
metal production for the quarter was 246 kt, up 17.5% y-o-y, in line with
improved smelter performance, better mined metal availability and base impact
due to extended maintenance shutdown during the same period last year. On a
sequential basis, integrated metal production witnessed a decrease of 5.5% due to
lower roaster availability on account of the breakdown of an acid storage tank
at the Chanderiya plant during Q2 FY23 and the time taken in ramp up of
production post maintenance. Overall H1 FY23 integrated metal production was
506 kt, a growth of 13.5% y-o-y, resulting from consistent mined metal flow
from mines and better plant availability partly offset by acid storage tank
breakdown at Chanderiya plant in Q2 FY23.
Integrated
zinc production for the quarter was 189 kt, up 16.4% as compared to Q2 FY22 and
was 8.3% lower sequentially. For H1 FY23, integrated zinc production was at 395
kt a 12.8% increase as compared to H1 FY22. Integrated lead production for the
quarter was up 21.5% y-o-y and 5.3% sequentially to 57 kt on account of the Pyro
plant being operated in the Lead-mode for a part of the quarter and better
plant availability. For H1 FY23, integrated lead production at 110 kt was up
16.1% y-o-y. Integrated silver production for the quarter was up 27.6% y-o-y
and 9.5% sequentially at 194 MT in line with lead metal production and WIP
liquidation. For H1 FY23, integrated silver production was up 18.6% y-o-y to
371 MT in line with lead metal production.
