Terramin flags higher output at Algeria zinc/lead mine

An initial optimisation study into the Tala Hamza zinc/lead project, in Algeria, has flagged a substantial increase in production rates, ASX-listed Terramin Australia said on Tuesday.

Terramin, which owns a 65% interest in the project, reported that the initial optimisation study had identified the potential for an additional eight-million tonnes of indicated resource to be included in production, representing an increase of about 30% of the total Tala Hamza reserve tonnage.
