MINEX Central Asia 2024 Forum was held in Bishkek, after which delegates from seven countries were invited to visit Kumtor Gold Company.
In 2018, when a similar event was held in the capital for the first time, participants could not get to the mine. Therefore, this year they were invited to visit the enterprise.
Chairman and founder of MINEX International Forum Arthur Poliakov said that the participants were impressed by the production itself, the strict approach to the selection of visitors and their medical examination.
Several people were rejected for health reasons. The company’s management is very responsible in its approach to safety issues. We were also impressed by the production itself. It was very informative to learn that in addition to open pit mining, an underground method will be introduced, which will extend the life of the mine.
