The mining division of the state corporation "Rosatom" achieved 100% fulfillment of its planned uranium and gold production targets by the end of 2025. This was reported by the press service of the division's management company — JSC "Rosatom Nedra" — following the results of the annual meeting of management with stakeholders.
The key event of the year was the organization of commercial operation at the "Severnoye" gold ore deposit in the Sakha Republic (Yakutia). The project ensured the production of 1.5 tonnes of gold with full fulfillment of the annual plan. First Deputy General Director of JSC "Rosatom Nedra" Aleksei Shemetov noted that investments in the division's gold-mining assets delivered a commercial result for the first time.
The division's revenue structure underwent significant changes: the share of non-uranium areas grew from 8% to 37.5% of the total volume. The growth was driven by the scaling up of projects for mining precious metals and other non-core assets.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that 317 new strategic raw material deposits were discovered in Russia over the previous year.
