Petro Matad shares surge after Mongolia tests ‘exceeded expectations’ www.ukinvestormagazine.co.uk

Petro Matad has announced that well testing at its Gazelle-1 site has exceeded expectations, with the company now fast-tracking the well for production before month-end.
At long last, some good news from Petro Matad.
The AIM-quoted Mongolian oil company revealed on Wednesday that the well flowed oil and gas to surface without artificial lift after perforating an eight-metre zone in the Tsagaantsav Formation.
Initial flow rates reached 160 barrels of oil per day on a 1/8 inch choke. This jumped to 300 bopd on a larger choke, ultimately achieving approximately 460 bopd on a 1/4 inch choke.
Crucially, no formation water appeared during testing. The oil quality measured 43° API, matching crude from the company’s Heron-1 well.
‘The performance of Gazelle-1 on test has exceeded expectations’, Petro Matad said in an RNS released on Wednesday, adding that production is targeted to begin before the end of October. Neighbouring operator PetroChina has provided equipment from its inventory to expedite completion and start-up.
Petro Matad shares were 30% higher at the time of writing.
The flow rates mean the rig will remain at Gazelle-1 rather than moving to test the Gobi Bear-1 well as planned. That operation has been postponed until April 2026. Investors shouldn’t be too upset that development at Gobi will take a while longer.
Elsewhere, Petro Matad reported progress at Heron-2, where beam pump installation began this month, and confirmed completion of Heron-1’s connection to Mongolia’s national electricity grid.
“We are delighted that the results from the Gazelle-1 well test have exceeded our expectations and we are now prioritising getting the well onstream as it shows the potential to significantly increase our daily production and revenue,” said Mike Buck, CEO of Petro Matad.
“We are also glad to see the start of an efficient down hole clean up at Heron-2 which should give us the definitive results on flowing fluid and well rate that we seek.
“We are disappointed that we will not be able to test Gobi Bear-1 during this operational season but there is minimal additional cost to remobilise for this activity in 2026 and right now, given the enthusiasm with which Gazelle-1 has tested, the production addition must be our first priority.”
Petro Matad was included in UK Investor Magazine’s ‘Top 20 Stock Picks for 2025’ and is currently one of the worst performers, losing 27% year-to-date.

Ulaanbaatar to Supply 170,000 Households with Semi-Coke Briquettes www.montsame.mn

The Green Development Committee of the Citizens’ Representatives Khural of the Capital City convened a meeting at the eastern plant of the “Tavantolgoi Tulsh” LLC.
The meeting reviewed the preparations for supplying over 170,000 households in Ulaanbaatar with semi-coke smokeless briquettes and transitioning 5,000 households to gas fuel. Officials discussed matters related to fuel distribution, supply, pricing, storage, and household access to coal, seeking detailed clarifications from the company. During the heating season, coal will be sold at 382 distribution points across the capital, and residents can purchase fuel using digital cards through the “Hotula” mobile application.
Director of “Tavantolgoi Tulsh” LLC, Ts. Erdenebayar, said, “Studies show that coal smoke accounts for 55 percent of Ulaanbaatar’s air pollution. We estimate that the use of semi-coke briquettes will reduce emissions by 25–28 percent. The preliminary price is set at MNT 3,750 per bag for compressed briquettes and MNT 5,000 for semi-coke fuel.”
It is worth noting that the sale of semi-coke briquettes, originally planned to begin on October 1, 2025, has been postponed pending a decision by the National Committee.

Advised to Manage Strategic Mineral Resources Prudently www.montsame.mn

The School of Political Science, International Relations, and Public Administration of the National University of Mongolia (NUM), in cooperation with the German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ), organized a public lecture and discussion titled “Resource Rivalries: The Politics of  Critical Minerals” on October 8, 2025.
NUM President and Professor Ochirkhuyag Buyanjargal remarked during the opening that “Strategic minerals are not only at the core of the global energy transition but are also closely linked to our country’s economic security, technological development, and international standing. The way we manage and regulate these resources is inseparable from the well-being of future generations. I am confident that this discussion will generate new ideas, partnerships, and innovative policy approaches that will contribute to Mongolia’s sustainable development and inclusive growth.”
Partner at the law firm Dunn & Crutcher, Boris Dolgonos, stated in his presentation, “To talk about rare earth elements is to talk about the future of technology. These minerals are directly connected not only to technology but also to national defense. Today, China extracts two-thirds of the world’s rare earth elements but carries out 90 percent of their processing. Mongolia is rich in copper, gold, and rare earth elements. For instance, the Oyu Tolgoi deposit is among the world’s largest copper-gold mines. Over 90 percent of Mongolia’s mineral exports go to China, which shows that the country remains limited in managing its own resources. Therefore, Mongolia needs to focus on developing sufficient infrastructure.”
GIZ Country Representative in the Kingdom of Cambodia Stefan Hanselmann also noted, “In recent years, supply and demand for rare earth elements have both increased, prompting some countries to even ban their export. Mongolia is a resource-rich country, and given current global trends, more attention and importance must be placed on Mongolia. The issue of rare earth elements is not new – it has been discussed for over a decade. This lecture contributes by helping participants better understand the significance of this topic and see it from new perspectives.”
Boris Dolgonos specializes in mining, investment, and financing, including IPOs, high-yield investment-grade securities, loan transactions, cross-border securities trading, private placements, and privatization. He has advised governments, private corporations, investment banks, and financial institutions in North and South America, Asia, Europe, and Africa, participating in major international deals.

Archaeologists use innovative technologies in search for Genghis Khan's tomb www.bgnes.com

When Genghis Khan died in 1227, he left behind a unified Mongolia, a vast empire, and an unsolved mystery—his final resting place. The ruler ensured that his remains would be laid to rest in a place where they would never be disturbed.
Despite the secrecy, some scholars still hope to discover Genghis Khan's tomb, which would allow them to put a final end to the life of one of the most significant and controversial figures in history. While some remember him as the founder of Mongolia, others portray him as a fearsome conqueror who created an empire through blood and iron.
If Genghis Khan's tomb still exists, many experts believe it is located on sacred ground atop a remote, inaccessible mountain, protected by customs and laws. Some, like National Geographic explorer Albert Lin, are using modern technology to search for the tomb in innovative, non-invasive ways. Other scholars, however, believe that searching for the tomb is both futile and contrary to Genghis Khan's wishes.
What have researchers learned about the khan's tomb—and will we ever be able to pinpoint its exact location?
Who was Genghis Khan?
Before becoming Genghis Khan, he was Temujin, a member of the Borjigin clan, born around 1160. At that time, Mongolia was divided between nomadic clans that often fought for power. His father, Yesugei, was a warrior whose military prowess earned him status and fame—and many enemies, who poisoned him when Temujin was about nine years old.
One of his father's enemies, the Merkits, "set out after Temujin when he was old enough," Lin says. Although they kidnapped his new wife, Börte, Temujin managed to escape. They pursued him to the summit of Burhan Khaldun, a sacred mountain in the Hentai Range in eastern Mongolia. "At the top of this mountain, according to legend, he prayed in all directions to the sky god Tengri, and somehow from that moment on, he managed to escape his enemies."
Temujin returned from the mountain alive, but without his wife. So he began to forge alliances to defeat the Merkits and rescue Börte. They not only defeated the Merkits—they destroyed them. From there, Temujin began a campaign to unite the various clans in the region, amassing soldiers, resources, and respect. In 1206, the clan leaders gave Temujin a new title: Genghis Khan, which, according to Lin, means "king of everything." He united the nomadic tribes of Mongolia and created the Mongol Empire, which stretched from Central Asia to parts of China, Persia, and Russia.
"Genghis Khan is the founder of the nation, the father of all Mongols," says anthropologist Jack Weatherford, author of Genghis Khan and the Creation of the Modern World. "He gave them a unified nation, gave it a name, established an alphabet and a set of laws."
The death of Genghis Khan and his mysterious burial
In 1227, the khan died while campaigning against the Xixia Empire in northern China. No one knows the exact cause of his death, but a key source written after his death — "The Secret History of the Mongols" — gives us some insight. "All we have is one sentence: 'In the year of the boar [1227] Genghis Khan ascended to heaven," says Weatherford.
Later chroniclers told their own stories about the cause of his death, ranging from falling off a horse to an arrow wound and even castration. Rather, scholars suggest that bubonic plague killed him. It is said that Genghis Khan's body was returned to Mongolia for a secret burial. Stories claim that everyone who accompanied the procession was killed to keep the location a secret, or that his followers diverted a river to protect the site.
"None of this is based on any evidence," says Weatherford.
However, experts believe that the lack of records of the burial was probably intentional to prevent desecration or disturbance of the ruler's spirit. "If you want to conquer someone's land or spiritual power, you destroy the graves of the ancestors buried there, because those graves hold the spiritual power of that person," explains Lin.
But what would Genghis Khan's burial site look like?
Experts such as archaeologist Jan Bemann, professor of prehistory and early historical archaeology at the University of Bonn, say that 13th-century Mongolian elites would have been buried in wooden coffins and laid to rest "in remote areas at the top of a mountain ridge." He argues that Mongol men like Genghis Khan were buried with items such as "a quiver of arrows" or "horse gear" that identified them as warriors.
On the other hand, Weatherford believes that Genghis Khan may have simply been "wrapped in felt" and "buried in the ground" because he "prided himself on living like his soldiers."
There is also the possibility that Genghis Khan was not buried at all. Some Mongols practiced "sky burials" — a nomadic form of burial "where they carry you to the top of a mountain and leave you there," says Lin.
Regardless of how he was laid to rest, many people believe that Genghis Khan's final resting place is Burhan Khaldun—the sacred mountain of safety, transformation, and spirituality for the Mongolian people, now part of UNESCO's world cultural heritage.
But archaeologists cannot simply survey the mountain for his tomb. Burkhan Khaldun is a sacred site for the imperial family and therefore part of a restricted area, Lin explains. Visits require special permission from the state, and access is usually granted only to shamans and Mongolian officials.
Searching for the tomb in the 21st century
In 2008, Lin proposed using modern technology—including satellites, drones, ground-penetrating radar, magnetometers, and electromagnetic induction—to examine Burkhan Khaldun without digging up the ground. His team also involved the public in reviewing ultra-high-resolution satellite images through a pioneering crowdsourcing campaign. This non-invasive approach was key to obtaining permission to access the mountain.
As part of the Valley of Khans project, funded by the National Geographic Society, Lin and his team discovered thousands of artifacts—including tiles, burnt wood, and horse teeth—dating from the death of Genghis Khan and beyond.
They also located, according to Lin, a "mound" and a "giant temple" at the top of the mountain. "Mongolians are nomads, so they don't build permanent structures," he explains. So the fact that there is a permanent structure on the mountain suggests that it was for ceremonial rather than everyday purposes.
But could this structure be part of Genghis Khan's tomb? Lin says there is no way to know without physically examining the site.
"This is no longer a technological obstacle. I think it's a matter of the Mongolian people deciding today whether they want to know what's under that structure," he says.
Does it make sense to search for the tomb?
If Genghis Khan's tomb still exists, experts say it is more than just a burial site. Lin says that for many Mongolians, it "would be a living thing that still embodies the spirit of Genghis Khan."
According to Mongolian beliefs, the act of "visiting the tomb is an attempt to bring the spirit back from heaven," explains Weatherford.
Even after 800 years, Mongolians remain defenders of their founder, and this shapes their attitude toward the tomb.
"It's a matter of heritage for the Mongolian nation," says archaeologist Joshua Wright, senior lecturer at the University of Aberdeen. "No one there is interested in having his tomb excavated or his remains exposed."
Wright says it is standard practice in modern archaeology to work with and respect the interests of heritage communities. "If the modern Mongolian nation has no interest in excavating Genghis Khan, no one is really going to do it," he adds.
The lack of interest in Mongolia in excavating the tomb raises questions about what value such a discovery would bring — and what it might take away.
"We shouldn't be looking for his tomb," Weatherford argues. "Genghis Khan said clearly: 'Let my body die, let my nation live!'. He was serious about that, and so are the Mongolians. It's not superstition, it's respect." | BGNES

Mongolia builds awareness of UN Water Convention with a view to strengthening transboundary water cooperation www.unece.org

Mongolia shares more than 30 rivers and lakes with its neighbors and has a long history of peaceful collaboration on shared waters. It agreed bilateral agreements on transboundary water cooperation with China (1994) and the Russian Federation (1995), laying the foundation for joint monitoring, data exchange and basin management. These agreements remain key pillars of transboundary cooperation and reflect Mongolia’s longstanding recognition of water as a strategic and shared resource. 
Mongolia is one of only 26 countries worldwide to have achieved a 100 percent score in its national report submissions in both 2020 and 2023 on SDG Indicator 6.5.2 measuring transboundary water cooperation, underscoring its commitment to cooperation via agreements and institutional arrangements with its co-riparians.  
However, Mongolia still faces increasing pressures on its water resources due to rising demand, climate change, aquifer depletion, and pollution. This is where the UN Convention on the Protection and Use of Transboundary Watercourses and International Lakes (UN Water Convention, together with its community of Parties and partners, can help to provide technical and financial support.  
To this end, Mongolia convened a national workshop on 25 September 2025 in Ulaanbaatar to advance awareness, dialogue and capacity on the UN Water Convention, marking an important step toward strengthening water cooperation and sustainable water governance. This contributes further to growing interest in the Convention from countries within Asia.  
Opening the event, Minister of Environment and Climate Change, H.E. Batbaatar Bat, underscored Mongolia’s commitment to transboundary water management in the face of climate change and growing pressures on water resources. He noted that Mongolia has “valued water as the basis of life” and has nurtured a legacy of cooperation with its neighbors that continues to evolve and the Convention could potentially help in this regard. 
H.E. Mrs. Ina Marčiulionytė, Ambassador of the European Union in Mongolia, emphasized that the workshop “marks a significant milestone in Mongolia's endeavours towards sustainable water management.” She welcomed Mongolia’s potential interest in joining the Convention, calling it “a crucial step in enhancing water cooperation and the sustainable use of shared water resources in the region,” and highlighted the EU’s ongoing support for water resilience, including partnerships in Mongolia to improve resource management and prevent flooding. 
Secretary of the UN Water Convention, Ms. Sonja Koeppel, commended Mongolia’s water cooperation leadership as evinced by SDG Indicator 6.5.2. She noted the Convention aims to support, not replace, existing agreements, whereby the potential for technical and financial support from the Convention’s Parties and partners could help to enhance the practical implementation of Mongolia’s existing water agreements. She highlighted that the Convention has become a truly global and legal intergovernmental platform with the accession of Bangladesh in June 2025 as evidence of rising interest across the region and warmly welcomed Mongolia’s exploration of membership. 
Speaking on behalf of the UN system in Mongolia, Mr. Jaap van Hierden, UN Resident Coordinator, affirmed that the United Nations stands ready to support the Government should it decide to accede to the Convention. He added that the UN will also work with national partners to help ensure water issues are at the forefront and integrated into the upcoming 17th UNCCD Conference of Parties, to be hosted by Mongolia in Ulaanbaatar in August 2026. 
Participants from government, development partners and the UN system explored how accession to the Convention could help Mongolia strengthen joint monitoring, climate adaptation, groundwater protection and basin-wide collaboration. The workshop also provided a platform to exchange good practices and identify opportunities for technical assistance, involving representatives from Parties to the Convention, including Hungary, Kazakhstan and Bangladesh. 
The workshop was made possible through funding provided by the European Union.

China-Europe freight trains passing through central corridor top 3,000, 39 days ahead of 2024 www.globaltimes.cn

The number of China-Europe freight trains passing through the central corridor of the China-Europe railway service has exceeded 3,000 this year, achieving this milestone 39 days earlier than last year, CCTV News reported on Wednesday.  
The 1,293rd China-Europe freight train, loaded with auto parts and general merchandise, departed from the Erenhot port in North China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, marking the 3,000th passage of a China-Europe freight train through the central corridor this year.
This is the third consecutive year that the port has handled more than 3,000 China-Europe freight trains.
Erenhot is the largest land port on the China-Mongolia border. In recent years, along with China's deepening efforts in international economic and trade cooperation, Erenhot has seen significant increases in train numbers, destinations, frequencies and the types of transported goods.
As a pivotal entry-exit point for the central corridor of the China-Europe railway service, the number of China-Europe freight train routes via the port has increased to 74, reaching more than 70 cities in more than 10 countries. Domestically, it connects with most of the originating cities of these freight trains. 
Since the inaugural train in 2013, the port has handled nearly 21,000 China-Europe freight trains. The categories of transported goods have been significantly upgraded, with the proportion of high-value-added products such as new-energy vehicles and high-end mechanical equipment rising from less than 10 percent in the early stages to more than 40 percent, the report said.
As of September 8, the port had handled 2,646 China-Europe freight trains this year, transporting 3.4876 million tons of cargo, year-on-year increases of 9.5 percent and 15.4 percent, said the China Railway Hohhot Group Co.
The number of China-Europe containers passing through the port has exceeded 300,000, achieving this milestone 23 days earlier than last year.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said on June 13 that the China-Europe Railway Express is a signature outcome of the Belt and Road Initiative. Routes of the China-Europe Railway Express have been launched in 128 cities in China, reaching 229 cities in 26 European countries and more than 100 cities in 11 Asian countries. 
We will uphold the principle of extensive consultation and joint contribution for shared benefit, continue to act as an important driving force for world connectivity, benefit the world through our own development, and achieve win-win and all-win, Lin said.

Mongolian falcons sell for SAR900,000 at Saudi falcons exhibition www.qazinform.com

Two falcons from Mongolia were sold yesterday for SAR900,000 at the International Saudi Falcons and Hunting Exhibition 2025. The auction saw fierce competition among bidders and strong engagement from attendees at the Riyadh Exhibition and Convention Center in Malham, north of Riyadh, SPA reports. 
The auction began with a hur qarnas (adult falcon), which started bidding at SAR200,000 before ultimately selling for SAR450,000. Following this, the second bird — a hur farkh (juvenile falcon) — was offered, started bidding at SAR100,000 and also selling for SAR450,000.
For the first time in its history, the exhibition dedicated a special zone for Mongolian falcons. These birds hold a prestigious status among falconers in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the region due to their high quality.
The zone hosts elite breeds of falcons from Mongolia, East Asia, particularly the hur falcon, known for its large size, long wingspan, and high endurance. It is also valued for its color variations, which range from light white to dark brown. These characteristics give the Mongolian falcon an advantage in the sport of falconry, thanks to its ability to endure harsh conditions and respond quickly to training, making it highly sought after by amateurs and professionals alike.
As written before, falcon sold for SAR1.2 million at International Falcon Breeders Auction.
