Nyrstar’s Hobart and Port Pirie smelters just received a $105 million federal and state funding boost to stay operational until 2026, following a previous $135 million injection that ran out in May. Beyond keeping operations alive, the cash will fund critical mineral expansion studies — including antimony production in Port Pirie — while securing 600 direct and 1,000 indirect jobs across Tasmania and South Australia. This move protects vital industrial jobs and explores future mineral opportunities for the regions.
