Mongolia's largest copper-gold mine, OT | Interview with The Nap National Miner ###
On June 2, Ulaanbaatar time, Oyu Tolgoi Oyun Tolgoi Copper and Gold Mine (hereinafter referred to as OT), the largest copper-gold mine in Mongolia and one of the largest copper mines in Asia, invited National Mining LLC, a subsidiary of Knight Mining Machine Mongolia, to conduct a special interview and publicity recording activity.
For a long time, as an important supplier of OT in Mongolia, National Mining Machinery has supplied important mining equipment products and spare parts to OT, including semi-self-grinding outlet liners, cylindrical sieve sieves and vibrating sieve sieves, pipes, cyclones and so on.
At present, the maximum daily processing capacity of OT selection plants can reach 100,000 tons, and in 2020 alone, the economic output value created by OT will account for about one-third of Mongolia's GDP. Since more than 80 percent of the mine's mineral reserves are underground, the Mongolian government approved underground mining projects for the mine in January. According to the plan, the mine's underground mine will be fully operational in the first half of 2023. The Prime Minister of Mongolia pointed out that when the mine is fully operational, Mongolia will become the country with the world's fifth largest high-tech underground mine and become one of the largest participants in the international copper market, and Mongolia's economic and fiscal budget revenue will increase by at least 3 times.
OT and Nap National Mining Machine attach great importance to this interview, after the completion of the interview recording, it will be broadcast on OT official media and Social Platforms such as Facebook, which is bound to greatly help the popularity of the national mining machine in Mongolia and the enhancement of brand influence.
In this interview, OT and National Mining Machinery jointly discussed some issues and follow-up matters of cooperation between the two sides in the field:
Mongolia's current heavy industry and manufacturing industry is relatively backward, the national mining machine as one of the few excellent industrial equipment manufacturing companies in the country, has a fairly leading and excellent production capacity and technology, not only for Mongolia's mining, industry to provide development reference, but also for Mongolia's manufacturing technology and talent management training has played a positive role in promoting.
The Naraha District of Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia, where the national mining machine is located, used to be a large-scale coal mining area, and its economic development has stagnated for more than a decade with the depletion of resources. Nowadays, as the largest taxpayer in the district, the national mining machine has made great contributions to the local economic development and provided considerable employment opportunities for the local area, in addition, the national mining machine is also actively involved in the local charity relief cause, and has a good corporate image in the local area.
As an important part of Mongolia's mining industry, OT needs to be imported and procured, and in recent years, due to the outbreak of the new crown, raw materials and transportation costs have risen sharply, which has caused a certain negative impact. From 2019 onwards, the completion and operation of the national mining machine has solved a considerable part of the important spare parts procurement problem, reduced the risk that the product cannot be delivered to the site in time, resulting in downtime, etc., which is a great progress, OT is willing to continue with the national mining machine, further enhance the depth and breadth of cooperation, and also hope that there will be more excellent domestic important suppliers like the national mining machine.
Since the establishment of the national mining machine in 2019, it has been striving to complete the three ISO international certifications in the country. In May this year, the national mining machine also completed all relevant certifications. This means that the national mining machine has taken an important step in the fields of health, safety, and quality. OT very much recognizes the efforts and achievements of the national mining machine and expresses high praise for the national mining machine.
The two sides are full of expectations in promoting the next step of cooperation in a deeper and broader field, and believe that in the near future, OT and National Mining Machinery will become important partners like Knight Mining Machine and Irdente Mining.
