Peñoles
34 years ago, Sumitomo Corporation formed a relationship with Peñoles, the world's largest
producer of refined silver and bismuth metal. To this day, Sumitomo still handles 100 per cent
of Peñoles silver imports to Japan. Peñoles was founded in 1887 and its current business
activities are all related to mining (lead, silver, gold, zinc, and copper), smelting and
refining metals, chemicals (sodium sulfate, ammonium, magnesium), as well
as energy and technology (wind power, thermoelectric power).
In 1994, Sumitomo joined Peñoles to invest in the Minera Tizapa mine, and started
operations with 240,000 tons of processing capacity per year. In 2011, it was
expanded to the current processing capacity of 800,000 tons per year.
In November 2013, the mine achieved a total processed minerals
amount of 10 million tons. Minera Tizapa produces zinc, lead
and copper concentrates.
In October 2013, Sumitomo started the promotion and export
of Peñoles zinc ingot to Africa and Asia with a historical sales
volume of 900 metric tons with a target volume of 3,000
metric tons by 2014.
