                         AMENDMENT NO. 6 TO SCHEDULE 13D

         This Amendment No. 6 dated June 21, 1996 (filed on behalf of B.U.S
Environmental Services, Inc. ("B.U.S") and B.U.S Berzelius Umwelt-Service AG
("B.U.S AG")) to the Schedule 13D dated August 3, 1990 filed on behalf of B.U.S,
B.U.S AG and Metallgesellschaft AG ("MG"), as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated
July 8, 1994, Amendment No. 2 dated April 18, 1995, Amendment No. 3 dated
September 11, 1995, Amendment No. 4 dated October 30, 1995 and Amendment No. 5
dated June 14, 1996 (the "Schedule 13D"), relates to the common stock, $.01 par
value ("Common Stock"), of Horsehead Resource Development Company, Inc., a
Delaware corporation ("HRD"). Capitalized terms used and not defined herein
shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

         Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its
entirety to read as follows:

         ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

         This statement is being filed by B.U.S, a Delaware corporation, the
principal business of which is owning the stock of HRD, and by B.U.S AG, a
corporation organized under the laws of Germany, the principal business of which
is the processing of industrial wastes. The principal executive office of B.U.S
is c/o B.U.S Berzelius Umwelt-Service AG, Vinckeufer 3, 47119 Duisburg, Germany.
The principal executive office of B.U.S AG is Vinckeufer 3, 47119 Duisburg,
Germany.

         As of March 1995, Lobbert Holding GmbH ("Lobbert ") owned 52% of B.U.S
AG's common stock ("B.U.S AG Common Stock"), but only 40% of B.U.S AG's voting
stock due to the provisions of Section 140 of the German Stock Corporation Law
("Section 140"). Under such provision, preferred stock (which normally has no
voting rights) automatically becomes voting stock if the issuing corporation
does not declare dividends to its preferred stockholders for two consecutive
years. B.U.S AG did not declare a dividend on its preferred stock (the "B.U.S
AG Preferred Stock") for either fiscal 1993 or fiscal 1994. On February 3, 1995,
when B.U.S AG released its audited financial statements for fiscal 1994, which
showed no dividends declared on the B.U.S AG Preferred Stock for such year, the
automatic voting rights provision of Section 140 was officially triggered. Thus,
holders of B.U.S AG Preferred Stock were entitled to vote as a single class with
holders of B.U.S AG Common Stock as of February 3, 1995. As a result, although
Lobbert owned 52% of B.U.S AG Common Stock, it owned only 40% of the voting
stock of B.U.S AG.

         The percentage of B.U.S AG's voting stock held by Lobbert, however, has
changed as a result of the following events. At the April 24, 1996 annual
meeting of shareholders of B.U.S AG (the "Annual Meeting"), it was announced
that Lobbert sold a portion of its shares of B.U.S AG Common Stock and, that
after such sale, Lobbert owned 49.1% of the B.U.S AG Common Stock. Also at the
Annual Meeting, the B.U.S AG shareholders authorized the payment of all past-due
dividends to holders of B.U.S AG Preferred Stock. Such past-due dividends were
paid on or about April 25, 1996. Upon such payment, the holders of the B.U.S AG
Preferred Stock lost their voting rights under Section 140. Accordingly, after
the Lobbert sale of B.U.S AG Common Stock as described


                                                                   Page 4 of 11
<PAGE>   5
above and the payment of the dividend on the B.U.S. AG Preferred Stock, Lobbert
owns 49.1% of the voting stock of B.U.S AG.

         The name, business address, citizenship, present principal occupation
or employment (and the name, principal business and the address of the
corporation or other organization in which such employment is conducted) of each
director and executive officer of B.U.S and B.U.S AG are set forth in Appendix A
hereto, which is incorporated by reference herein.

         During the last five years, none of B.U.S, B.U.S AG or, to the best
knowledge of B.U.S and B.U.S AG, any of their respective directors or executive
officers:

         (a) has been convicted in any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic
         violations or similar misdemeanors), or

         (b) has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
         administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such
         proceeding is or was subject to a judgment, decree or final order
         enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities
         subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violations
         with respect to such laws.

         In addition, none of B.U.S, B.U.S AG or, to the best knowledge of B.U.S
and B.U.S AG, any of their respective directors or executive officers, are
presently the subject of a pending criminal environmental proceeding.


                                                                   Page 5 of 11
