The Century Zinc Mine, located near Lawn Hill in Queensland, has a dynamic operational history. Originally a significant producer of zinc and lead concentrate, it underwent a period of closure before being revived for tailings reprocessing. Now owned and operated by Sibanye-Stillwater, the site utilises existing infrastructure, including a processing plant and a 304km slurry pipeline to Karumba port. While historical production averaged substantial zinc and lead concentrate outputs, current operations focus on retrieving zinc from tailings. The Darimah village supports the workforce.
