Kimia Zanjan Gostaran Industrial and Mining Company is one of the leading producers of lead and zinc in Iran. With over a decade of successful operation, the company has been able to meet both domestic and international market demands. By implementing modern production methods, empowering its workforce, and applying efficient management practices, the company has achieved top national and international rankings, while continuously improving productivity and product quality.
In March 2015, the company was converted into a publicly held company and was listed on Iran’s over-the-counter (OTC) market (IFB). Its shares were first offered to the public in January 2016. On February 27, 2023, the stock symbol “KIMIA” was transferred to the Second Market of the Tehran Stock Exchange. This major achievement enhanced the company’s credibility and facilitated easier and more cost-effective access to financing. It also increased the company’s free float in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Organization’s regulations and doubled its tax exemption under Article 105 of the Direct Tax Act—from 5% to 10%.
Kimia Zanjan Gostaran Industrial and Mining Company was established in 2007 with the goal of producing lead and zinc concentrate to meet domestic market demands and access international markets. Following the approval of its articles of association, the appointment of the board of directors and legal inspector, and its official registration under No. 7083 at the Zanjan Registration Office on August 4, 2007, the company began operating as a private entity.
One of the key characteristics of this company is the use of the latest global technologies, effective collaboration with experienced experts, and efforts to reduce production waste and increase efficiency. The company’s nominal capacity is 250,000 tonnes of zinc concentrate and 50,000 tonnes of lead concentrate.
The project was launched with an investment of 115 billion rials. The company produces and supplies zinc concentrate to more than 45 ingot-producing plants across the country. It has created employment opportunities for around 500 people, both directly and indirectly, and is among the few industrial centers where environmental considerations were carefully observed and integrated throughout the construction and operation processes.
