Rampura Agucha Becomes Zinc Mark Certified Mine

26 May 2026 CW Team

Zinc Mark is a globally recognised assurance framework that validates responsible zinc production against international Environmental, Social and Governance standards, responsible sourcing practices and value chain transparency. The certification strengthens Hindustan Zinc’s ability to offer responsibly sourced zinc from mining to smelting.

The development follows the company’s recent Zinc Mark certification for its Chanderiya Smelting Complex, making Hindustan Zinc the first company in India to offer responsibly sourced zinc across the given production chain.

The certification was awarded after an independent third-party assessment under the Copper Mark Assurance Framework. It verified Rampura Agucha’s compliance with internationally recognised responsible production standards across key environmental, social and governance parameters.

As global industries increasingly focus on sustainable procurement, the certification strengthens Hindustan Zinc’s value proposition for customers seeking transparent, traceable and ESG-compliant raw materials. The company supplies sectors including steel galvanisation, infrastructure, automobiles, renewable energy, electronics and advanced manufacturing.

Arun Misra, CEO, Hindustan Zinc, said Rampura Agucha Mine receiving Zinc Mark certification reflects the company’s integrated approach towards responsible production and ESG excellence across its value chain. He added that the recognition strengthens customer confidence in Hindustan Zinc as a trusted partner delivering high-quality zinc backed by transparency, responsible production and globally benchmarked ESG standards.

Hindustan Zinc is advancing Zinc Mark certification across its operations as part of its long-term commitment to responsible production. The company continues to focus on decarbonisation, circular economy practices, biodiversity conservation and water positivity.

The company has also been recognised as the world’s most sustainable metals and mining company by the S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment 2025 for the third consecutive time. It is also the pioneer of EcoZen, Asia’s first low-carbon zinc brand, and remains committed to achieving net zero emissions by 2050 or sooner.
