Zinkgruvan tätort, Askersunds kommun, Närke, Sverige
Zinkgruvan is a locality situated in Askersund Municipality, Örebro County, Sweden.
It is situated close to Sweden's second-largest lake, Vättern. The village is famous for its mining industry started by the Belgian company Vieille Montagne in 1857, hence the name Zinkgruvan (literally "the zinc mine" in English). Zinkgruvan was founded around the mine in the 1860s, and the history of the village is closely tied to the history of the mine. The people living in Zinkgruvan are mostly mine workers.
Zinkgruvan also contains several ski facilities, including an illuminated cross country ski track. The ski association in Zinkgruvan uses snow cannons to ensure that the ski-track is provided with snow during the entire winter. An old ice hockey rink in the village is filled with ice in the winter for public entertainment. Zinkgruvan is home to a museum that documents the history of the mining industry in the town.
Zinkgruvan Mining is one of the oldest Zn Pb Ag mining companies in Sweden.
The 1860 map is the oldest surviving map of the Zinkgruvan site.
The map shows the locations of mine cuts and excavations (white rings) and the planned and completed railway embankment in 1860.
The extent of the ore horizon is about 4 km, from Knalla (Le Hon) in the west to Blygruvorna in the east.
Note that north is at the bottom of the map, it is upside down.
In 1857 the Belgian mining group Vieille Montagne buys Ammeberg and the nearby mining concession.
1857 was the beginning of the industrial era in the southern part of Närke.
The Belgian engineers saw the enormous potential of the area and started a huge project, the construction of a community, which was unusual in this application at this time. Homes, hospitals, casinos, schools, a port and many more were built by Vieille Montagne and at the same time they started a mining operation that 158 years later, still produces and even more than ever.
In 1995 Vieille Montagne Zinkgruvan Mining sells to the Australian company North Ltd.

Geochronology
Mineralization age: Paleoproterozoic : 1924 Ma to 1865 MaImportant note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
