Hayden Smelter is a smelter at Hayden, Arizona, owned and operated by ASARCO. It has a 305 meter (1,000 feet) tall chimney, which is the tallest free-standing structure of Arizona.

In 2011, the EPA took action against the smelter for releasing "illegal amounts of lead, arsenic and eight other dangerous compounds."[1]
