Lead is a neurotoxin commonly found in our daily lives. While lead has been eliminated from gasoline, household paint, and solder, you can still be exposed to lead from many different sources including dust containing lead from pre-1978 lead paint, paint chips, contaminated soils, water, ceramic plates, bowls, and glasses, and imported candy, toys, cosmetics, and jewelry Lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has indicated that no safe blood lead level in children has been identified. Even low levels of lead in blood have been shown to affect IQ, ability to pay attention, academic achievement, and other behavioral issues. As of January 1, 2018, Allegheny County requires every child under age six to be tested for lead exposure. The first of two tests will be conducted when a child is approximately 9-12 months old, and the second test will take place around the child’s second birthday. According to the Allegheny County Health Department, 53% of County children born in 2016 were tested for lead between the ages of nine to 12 months. This share has risen from 30% of County children born in 2009. Children are initially tested with a capillary, or “finger prick” blood test. If an elevated level of lead is found, a venous blood test will be administered to confirm the result. For more information on the testing methods, please see the Allegheny County Health Department’s Lead Exposure in Allegheny County report, released in September, 2018. The Allegheny County Health Department currently treats confirmed blood lead level tests with 5 µg/dL or more of lead as elevated. This measurement is based on the CDC’s reference level for public health action, established in May 2012. If a child under age 6 tests with a confirmed blood lead level of 5 µg/dl and above, ACHD offers a free home inspection. The goal of this inspection, along with XRF readings, sampling of dust, soil, and water, is to help identify any sources of lead exposure in the home. The inspection includes identifying possible alternative sources of lead exposure from jewelry, toys, cosmetics, parent occupations and/or hobbies. Inspectors also educate the family about how good nutrition can mitigate absorption of lead and immediate steps the family can take to reduce lead exposure in the home. ACHD also offers free lead testing for the uninsured or underinsured at its Immunization clinic, and at WIC offices in McKeesport and Wilkinsburg. The Allegheny Lead Safe Homes Program currently provides free home repairs to keep families safe from lead paint. This program will test for lead-based paint in the home and will aid with repairs and prevention education to Allegheny County homeowners or renters who meet income requirements and whose home is built before 1978. All work is done in a lead-safe manner. Eligible residents must either have a child under 6 years or a pregnant woman in the household.

Key Market Driver

The developing economies of the world, including China, India, Brazil, Mexico, the Philippines, and Indonesia, are expected to drive the growth of the market. Due to factors such as low transportation costs, availability of land, cheap labor, raw materials, and less stringent government regulations, many OEMs of lead oxide are shifting their manufacturing activities to these countries. The increasing population, high disposable income, and growing purchasing power in APAC and Latin America are promoting incremental investment rates in automobiles and other manufacturing activities. Specifically, the increase in GDP of developing countries in APAC and Latin America is expected to drive the manufacturing industries in these regions, fostering the growth of the market.

However, the COVID-19 outbreak led to economic disruptions in many developing countries in 2020, with governments implementing lockdowns that caused the shutdown of manufacturing plants and supply chain disruption. India and China, the manufacturing hubs in APAC, were adversely affected. Nevertheless, with the lifting of lockdowns in May 2020 and the introduction of vaccines for COVID-19, the market is expected to reach pre-pandemic levels by the end of 2021, and the demand from developing countries is expected to increase post the pandemic.

Major Market Challenge

Stringent regulations and policies are a major restraint in the market. The growing health concerns related to lead oxide manufacturing are expected to hinder the market. The constant push from regulatory agencies such as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) on environmental and sustainability issues is expected to impede market growth. When inhaled, the lead oxide can cause irritation to the lungs. In cases of accidental dosage, one might experience chest pain, metallic taste, and abdominal aches. When ingested, it will dissolve in gastric acid and result in lead poisoning with symptoms such as irritability, agitation, hypertension, vision disorders, and others. In the US, Title IV of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) and Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act provides rules for the regulation of lead-based paint hazards.

Further, the EPA also has imposed strict guidelines pertaining to the recycling of lead-acid batteries. The recyclin

Revenue for the Silver, Lead and Zinc Ore Mining industry remains subdued in 2025-26, having experienced significant volatility in the five years preceding it. Industry revenue has fallen at an annualised 5.2% from 2020-21 to sit at $5.6 billion in 2025-26, when it is anticipated to dip 2.4%. A strong commodity-driven boom occurred through 2022-23, but the recent downtrend in revenue is primarily the result of normalising metal prices, weaker construction activity in China (a key downstream market for zinc miners), and operational headwinds like regulatory delays and declining ore grades at flagship projects like Cannington and Rosebery. The industry’s profit margin has fallen from 20.3% in 2020-21 to 11.3% in 2025-26, a reflection of mounting expenses like purchase costs, legal fees and insurance premiums. Market volatility has shifted the core make-up of industry revenue. While zinc remains the dominant product segment in both value and weight, its share has been eroded by weather disruptions, mine closures and global price normalisation, which have driven a 22.3% fall in the per kiloton price since 2020-21 after accounting for inflation. Meanwhile, the silver ore and concentrates segment has strengthened thanks to its growing use in photovoltaic and end electronic applications amid the broader clean energy transition. International trade for the industry has shown significant volatility in recent years. In 2024-25, export revenue surged 37.1% off the back of hikes in the value of exported zinc and lead ores and concentrates, which climbed 35.2% and 51.9%, respectively. At the same time, imports skyrocketed 112.5% to meet more than one-third of domestic demand. Industry revenue is forecast to stabilise, growing modestly at an annualised 0.3% over the five years through 2030-31 to reach $5.7 billion. Incremental output improvements, the ongoing ramp-up at the Century mine and potential gains from recommissioned assets like Endeavour and Bowdens Silver will support the industry. Still, global pricing uncertainty, soft demand from China and the structural need for technological and sustainability upgrades will pressure profit margins. Success will hinge on how effectively companies can execute cost discipline and unlock efficiencies by expanding brownfield operations.
