Chairman of Kerman Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture: When there is a mine in Kerman, its blessings must be for the province.

According to Iran International Stone Exhibition, Seyed Mehdi Tabibzadeh said at the opening ceremony of the 8th International Exhibition of Mining, Mining Industries, Mineral Processing and Related Equipment and the 6th International Exhibition of Mining Machinery and Road Construction at the Southeast International Exhibition Center: The return of proprietary interest to the province, the elimination of the obligation of mining companies to order prices, and the withdrawal of the spx system could be a new chapter in the development of the province's mining industry.

He said that when there is a mine in the province, its blessings should be for the province, adding that the mine is an irreversible complex that may one day run out of minerals, so there must be an alternative to the mine.

The head of the Kerman Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture said: "Unfortunately, the government's interference in mining affairs prevented this from happening. An example of this is the ordering of iron ore prices so that the mining sector does not subsidize steel production." There is no consumer price.

Tabibzadeh added: "Because of the iron ore that exists in Kerman, each ton of Khuzestan steel ingots is provided with two hundred and seventy-three thousand tomans, while if this capacity is in Kerman province, it can have an annual income of one thousand and eight hundred billion tomans."

He continued: "We demand that these resources be returned or that the supply and demand system prevail so that steel companies can reduce their cost prices in terms of increasing productivity."

The head of the Kerman Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture emphasized: the ownership interest of the mines that leave the province should be returned and spent on the development of infrastructure and other sectors.

Tabibzadeh, referring to the issue of spx (connection between demand and supply), said: "Large projects are underway in the mining industry in the province, which if spx is removed in Kerman province could be a new chapter in the development of private sector activities in the transformation industry."

According to him, the copper industry in Kerman province is still leading and has been able to add one hundred and fifty-two percent growth to its production.
