Nyrstar beats H1 profit estimates on higher zinc prices, mining resurgence

Zinc producer Nyrstar on Wednesday reported a core profit above estimates for the first half of 2017, aided by higher zinc prices and a resurgence in profitability at its remaining mining operations.

Nyrstar has sold all of its mines in South America, but it has invested in its North American raw material assets and will restart operations at a Canadian site in August 2017.
