BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 22. A complete
chain of the mining industry—all the way to the final product—must
be created. Indeed, this entails ore extraction and the
establishment of several plants, said President Ilham Aliyev during
a meeting dedicated to the State Program on the
development of the mining and metallurgical industry.
The head of state added: “Beneficiation, pelletizing, and hot
briquetted iron plants must be constructed. Naturally, the
transportation of this ore is also important; therefore,
concessions should be made on transportation tariffs to ensure
economic efficiency. A maximum environmental assessment must be
conducted, and all ecological standards must be strictly
observed.”
To note, on September 22, President of the Republic of
Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev chaired a meeting dedicated to the “State
Program on the Development of Mining (Metal Ores) and Metallurgical
Industry in the Republic of Azerbaijan for 2027–2030.”
