Canadian diversified miner Teck Resources has shut down one of the four sections of its electrolytic zinc plant at the Trail Operations in British Columbia, following a localised fire on Tuesday.

The company confirmed that there were no injuries resulting from the fire, and no environmental impacts are expected.

Despite the shutdown of the affected section, production continues at the remaining three sections of the electrolytic zinc plant.

Lead production, along with other specialty metals and by-products, also remains unaffected at Trail.

The company said it had launched an investigation into the cause of the incident.
