According to the International Exhibition of Iranian Stone, growth in production, development of exploration, implementation of development projects and rehabilitation of small mines were all among the issues that were considered by government officials in the mining sector during the year of production boom.

This year, too, by lettering production jumps, various collections of long-term and targeted programs have been considered to move in this direction.

Mineral capacity for production mutations

The Minister of Industry, Mines and Trade stated: "This year, which has been designated by the Supreme Leader of the Revolution as a leap in production, is in fact a continuation of the year of production boom and complements its lofty goals. To achieve the maximum results and goals of this year's letter.

Reza Rahmani emphasized: In the year of production leap, it is one of the pioneers of economy, mining and mineral industries. Fortunately, this area has performed well in the past year, so the measures taken in the new year must be continued and strengthened.

Reza Rahmani stated: "Considering the existing discoveries in the mining sector, we have very good capacities in the field of mining and we must go to the light of new methods in financing and investing."

 Imidro's plan to make a production leap

Khodadad Gharibpour, Deputy Minister of Industry, Mines and Trade and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Imidro, referred to Imidro's plans this year to implement the production leap and said: We consider the productivity of production units, the increase in investment, and, in general, the set of short-term, medium-term, and long-term plans to achieve the leap of production.

Gharibpour, referring to the activities of the Production Leap Working Group, said: "Since last year, a working group has been formed in Imidro to control the management of manufacturing companies, which has been monitoring the prosperity of production." This year, the working group was renamed the Production Leap so that it could pay attention to this issue in various sectors of the mining and mineral industries.

The Deputy Minister of Industry, Mines and Trade, emphasizing the importance of focusing on complementary explorations, said: "Since the initial discoveries have been made, we must focus on complementary discoveries." Last year we had more than $ 3 billion, and this year we have $ 2.3 billion in development projects.

He continued: "In the discussion of explorations, from the second half of 1397 until today, we have defined about four hundred thousand square kilometers of new exploration area, which with the previous zones will reach a total of six hundred and fifty thousand square kilometers."

The head of Imidro's executive board also spoke about the organization's efforts to increase production and boost employment: "Employment can be increased with a little investment in some mining sectors." This year, about $ 7,000 in direct development projects will create about 7,000 direct jobs and 60,000 indirect jobs through total investment. In total, more than 70,000 people will earn direct and indirect income from this field. With the development of these projects, our country will also benefit from the fruits of increasing production.

He also spoke about small-scale mines: "We have defined small-scale mines, and in the process we have a plan to rehabilitate two hundred small mines." In this process, if we can put semi-finished projects into orbit, we will definitely help the production jump, because along with increasing productivity and reviving semi-finished, inactive and semi-active projects, production can be increased.

Gharibpour pointed to the increase in capital of mines through the National Development Fund and said: "Another of Imidro's plans for the year of production leaps is to finance mining complexes through the National Development Fund." As you know, mining financing means increasing investment, production and employment.

He continued: "Last year, the increase in capital of mines was one of the solutions that had positive results; for example, collections such as Mobarakeh Steel and the National Copper Company had very good experiences." In the new year, we have an increase in capital in Golgohar on the agenda.

He continued: "The re-increase of the capital of the Mining Investment Insurance Fund is another of Imidro's programs in the year of the leap of production."

Mining investment development

Majid Pourmoghadam, Advisor to the Deputy Minister of Mining, Industry, Mines and Trade, said: "The jump in production is in line with the resistance economy and the prosperity of production." If we want to move towards these goals, we must develop investment and job opportunities in the mining and mineral industries.

Adviser to the Deputy Minister of Mines, Industry, Mines and Trade stressed the need to increase the depth of mineral exploration in the country. Upgrade the position.

Pointing to the activation of development projects, Pour-Moghaddam stated: "One of the things that can help the production leap is the reconstruction and modernization of worn-out structures." We will definitely need minerals to supply the raw materials for construction projects, dilapidated structures and highway construction, so this year we can see a big leap in the mining sector along with creating significant employment in the country.

Adviser to the Deputy Minister of Mining, Industry, Mines and Trade, emphasizing the need to form mineral associations, said: "We must create seventy organizations for each of the seventy types of minerals, which will be a major leap forward in production."
