The Twelfth Session of the Central Provincial Stone Policy Council
Head of Mining and Trade Organization of Markazi Province: The country's stone table has been transferred to Markazi Province. To make matters better for the country's stone table, we intend to set up specialized commissions for production, extraction, processing, marketing and sales, and in cooperation with all of the country's stone provinces, to maximize the country's stone export.
According to the International Stone Exhibition of Iran, the twelfth meeting of the Central Province Stone Industry Policy Council was held this morning in the meeting room of the Central Province Mining and Trade Organization.
Mohammad Reza Hajipour, head of the Central Province Mining and Trade Organization, said at the meeting: "All our efforts in the central province are to increase the interaction between the government and the private sector as much as possible.
He added: "Since the beginning of the revolution we have faced various sanctions and we have always been able to successfully pass these sanctions and now we will pass them with great pride."
He continued: The country stone table has been transferred to the central province. To make matters better for the country's stone table, we intend to set up specialized commissions for production, extraction, processing, marketing and sales, and in cooperation with all of the country's stone provinces, to maximize the country's stone export.
Increasing exports is the country's top priority
He emphasized that the most important priority for the country stone table is to solve export problems. These problems are raised at the country's stone table and transferred to the authorities to take the necessary steps to resolve these obstacles. In order to achieve the desired result, all those who have an active and effective role in the field of export must be present at the country's stone table.
He continued: "Our focus should be on increasing exports." Export incentives should be given to production units and the presence of production units at international fairs should be prioritized.
Mohammad Reza Haji Purgat: The roadmap for the mine has been compiled and communicated. In this regard, we must make every effort to enable small and inactive mines. One of the benefits of setting up a mining clinic is that we can identify and resolve problems and obstacles in the way of mining development.
"We will use all the capacity of the private sector to grow and develop the mining industry," he said.
China's granite mines are closed
Mohsen Mirzaei, a member of the board of directors of the Iranian Stone Association, said: "The most important problem at present is to increase exports and to impose sanctions." If these problems are resolved, the private sector can in a short time explain the true position of Iranian rock in the world.
He added: "To express the problems of the export sector, the best people are those who do it every day." These people can give the best advice to the authorities.
"Due to the problems, some processing units are currently selling their stones very cheaply to Arab dealers, but if Iran's banking problems are resolved, we can supply Iranian stones at world prices," he said.
According to the news that I have heard, all China's granite mines will be shut down for a hundred years due to environmental issues. The Chinese are now fully prepared to invest in Iran's granite mines, and this is the best opportunity to attract Chinese investors and enable passive granite mines.
We need more financial transactions with the world
Abbas Ghanbari, a member of the Iranian Association of Stones, said: Currently some of the costs related to export of stones in Iran, such as shipping and container costs are done with $ 14,000 but the exported dollars are transferred to Nima system. The rate of eight thousand tomans is calculated. We expect the government to reduce the gap between these two rates or to solve the problem in any way it knows.
He added that the issues of financial transactions with other countries are one of the most important export problems.
