Border Mining Problems According to Behman Amandar
CEO of Negin Sang Fajr Khorasan Company: We have a very difficult supply of fuel because the mine is located in one of the border towns and the authorities in these cities are very strict about fuel, and also the price of machinery is very high. These machines are not Iranian-made and the government should not be so strict about importing them.
Behnam Amandar, CEO of Negin Sang Fajr Khorasan Company in an exclusive interview with Iran International Stone Exhibition stated: I have been working in the mining industry for about 19 years, I am a master of geology and this company has been established in Khorasan Razavi for about seven months. .
"The stone we extract is Chinese marble and we have just purchased mine," he said. The mine was active twenty years ago, when it was extracted with gunpowder, and has been inactive since then. We've been operating this mine for about seven months.
He said: The price of the stone we extract starts from a ton of five hundred thousand tomans and goes up to one and a half million tomans. For sale we intend to have marketing activities in Isfahan, Tehran and other locations and in the field of export we intend to work in China, Italy, Turkey and India.
He pointed out that the company 's business forces have participated in international exhibitions to obtain export information and are marketing, the company' s website is currently active in Farsi but will soon be multilingual.
"We have a very difficult supply of fuel because the mine is located in one of the border towns, and the authorities in these cities are very strict about fuel, and the price of machinery is very high," he said. These machines are not Iranian-made and the government should not be so strict about importing them.
"The shortage of heavy machinery tires, the lack of necessary infrastructure such as electricity that is not needed to power electricity, and the high cost of electricity, are other problems," he said. Natural resources and the environment are among the departments with which the mining sector has major problems.
"We now agree not to sell it," he said. "We also agree with this, but they should note that good processing requires machinery and that making these machines requires money, which banks must provide with cheap facilities." How to buy and process machinery when banks do not provide cheap facilities?
