“The world’s largest zinc producer Korea Zinc is a longstanding important contributor to our regional economy, and through the Sun Metals Corporation, is the largest private sector employer in North Queensland."
“Now, its subsidiary Ark Energy is not only helping Korea Zinc to decarbonise and produce green zinc – it’s transforming North Queensland into a hydrogen powerhouse."
"There are many pieces to a green hydrogen economy. This morning, the Clean Energy Finance Corporation (CEFC) announced its first investment through the Advancing Hydrogen Fund: $12.5 million to help Korea Zinc subsidiary Ark Energy Corporation produce green hydrogen to power the world’s heaviest fuel-cell electric trucks soon set to ply the 30 kilometre zinc concentrate-to-ingot route from Townsville Port to Sun Metals Refinery, and back."
"It’s a demonstration project for the functionality and versatility of a hydrogen hub; a demand incubator for hydrogen; a use case for electric vehicles in the hard-to-abate heavy transport sector, along with the necessary refuelling infrastructure; and a precursor to Ark Energy exporting green hydrogen to Asia."

“Sun Metals and WGL have entered into a research and development collaboration agreement to explore the creation of new composite protective coatings using boron nitride nano sheets (white graphene). These coatings are being developed to protect the interior surfaces of sulphuric acid pumps and other equipment to enhance their lifespan in extremely adverse operating conditions. Under the collaboration agreement, WGL will retain ownership of all intellectual property rights developed during the project. The project will include a full-scale in-situ testing stage on sulphuric acid pumps installed into the production facility at the Sun Metals refinery in Townsville.”
