Established in 1973, MHK Zletovo was a lead and zinc smelter employing 1.100 workers. Each year about 130.000 Mg of lead and zinc concentrates were used to produce 30,000 Mg of lead, 60,000 Mg of zinc and 250 Mg of cadmium, as well as smaller quantities of silver, gold, copper dross and bismuth alloy. The process was producing 100,000 Mg per year of sulphuric acid as a by-product. The plant closed in 2003. The same company also owned and operated a nearby fertilizer plant.
