The need to provide up-to-date machinery in the mining sector
Head of Mining House: We need to bring up-to-date machinery to the mining sector to move towards development.
According to the International Iranian Stone Exhibition, the light shadow of raw material sales of minerals was discussed in a special news talk show with the presence of Mohammad Reza Bahraman, head of Iran's Mining House, and Dariush Ismaili, deputy minister of mining and mining.
Pointing out that the surplus of mineral pumice production is so great that it does not need to be imported, Bahraman said: "Extraction equipment must be modernized, so our policy must be up-to-date. Reduced worldwide.
"Today we can do the opposite when global demand has fallen," he said, noting that countries active in the mining sector have factors to consider. In the Gulf states, the price of mining machinery has dropped by 25 percent, so taking advantage of opportunities requires intelligence.
The head of Iran's Mining House pointed out that in our country, the price of equipment has increased between sixty and seventy percent over the past year. "If we can't deliver the equipment to the mining sector on time, we won't achieve the goals of the roadmap," he said.
Bahraman continued by pointing out that currency management should be provided to the central bank: "We should bring up-to-date machinery to the mining sector so that we can move towards development, so our strategy is to provide the necessary equipment inside the country."
He pointed out that manufacturers are always looking for a way to manage the entire chain so that we do not suffer: "Zobahan has accepted responsibility in the country, and therefore we have defined Zobahan outside all systems."
Twenty-five percent will be added to the discovered mineral reserves this year
In another part of the program, Dariush Esmaili, Deputy Minister of Mines and Mining Industries of the Ministry of Industry, pointed out that for this year, we have allocated about 3 trillion tomans from the Mining Insurance Fund for exploration and extraction: this year Twenty-five percent is set to be added to previously discovered reserves.
The Deputy Minister of Mines and Mining Industries of the Ministry of Industry, noting that we currently have one hundred and fifty inactive iron ore mines in the country, said: "The main route for the mining sector is exploration, so the orientations in this regard are appropriate. We plan to add up to 25 percent to the reserves discovered in the exploration debate.
Ismaili continued by pointing out that we have defined three main projects in the Ministry of Industry that will help equip and modernize the mining sector: "We have held meetings with manufacturers, contractors and machine builders so that our main priority is domestic construction."
Noting that we are exporting a collection of steel products and mineral products, he added: "In the mining and mineral industries sector, we will use currency where needed, so part of the currency is to be used to modernize mines and machinery." That will increase the exchange rate.
The Deputy Minister of Mines and Mining Industries of the Ministry of Industry, referring to Article One Hundred and Nine and One Hundred and Ten Mines Regulations, said: Enter ten years.
Noting that our main problem today is the lack of decorative stones, Ismaili said: "We have four billion tons of decorative stones, we are producing fourteen million tons and with the tolls that were closed last year, nearly a thousand decorative stone mines from Two thousand mines have been closed and another idea must be considered for the new year, the latest technology in the world must be brought into the country by investors.
We extract about fourteen million tons of rock in the country
Reza Ahmadi, the head of the Iranian Stone Center, said during a telephone conversation with the program that about 14 million tons of stone are being extracted: "About one million will be exported." Our mines have about ten to twenty percent quality stone, and the rest is lower quality stone that is not useful for export.
He added: "Today, our processing units receive 80% of what is not useful for export and work on it to be exported. Despite the large number of mines, factories are closed and cannot work so that we could not export to the processing market." Let's face it, we were facing sanctions.
Rasoul Khalifa Soltani, secretary of the Iranian Steel Producers Association, noted that small units are not economically viable for investment and should be consortiumed. "These units should be supported by a higher capacity, they should be supported by large steelmakers," he said. Problems to be solved.
He said: "In the last two or three weeks, we have to say from the position of steel producers that we have not been able to give a positive answer to the flaws in any way, which is a low ratio." Due to the fact that the price of updated steel ingots is relatively high, it is now very reasonable and competitive, and the price of stone has become fair.
