Concession agreement to be established for Zuunbayan-Khangi railway project www.montsame.mn

At today's Cabinet meeting, the State Procurement Agency was authorized to conclude a concession agreement for the Zuunbayan-Khangi railway project with the project implementing entity.
Minister of Road and Transport Development L.Khaltar was assigned to take immediate measures to resolve the issue of giving licenses related to the implementation of the concession project in accordance with the relevant law and regulations.
Resolution No. 28 of the Government of Mongolia dated January 12, 2022, tasked to conclude a direct contract for the Zuunbayan-Khangi railway project in accordance with the Concession Law.
The basic structure of the Zuunbayan-Khangi railway will start at the Zuunbayan station of the Ulaanbaatar Railway in Zuunbayan bagh, Sainshand soum, Dornogovi aimag, and run to the Hangi port, connecting it to the Chinese port of Mandal.
With the commissioning of the Zuunbayan-Khangi railway, the transportation distance from the Yeruu station of the Ulaanbaatar Railway to the Baotou station in China will be shortened from 1,722 km to 1,404 km by 306 km and the transportation cost of iron ore will be reduced by USD 4-8. In addition to making Mongolia's iron ore competitive with Chinese and Australian iron ore prices, the project is significant to increase exports, imports, and transit freight traffic, create new international railway crossings, and create more than 1,600 jobs.

Gold price approaching record high as Ukraine, inflation risks mount www.mining.com

Gold extended its blistering rally on Tuesday towards an all-time high as investors made a beeline for the haven metal on mounting fears about the Ukraine crisis and rising inflation.
Spot gold surged 3.5% to $2,068.07 an ounce by 12:10 p.m. ET, within touching distance of its peak of $2,072.50 set in August 2020. US gold futures also jumped 4.0% to $2,076.70 an ounce in New York.
“The combination of roaring energy prices, grain prices, base metal prices is culminated in dramatic inflationary pressures that continue to be the major underlying support behind gold moves higher,” David Meger, director of metals trading at High Ridge Futures, said in a Reuters report.
“In addition, we’re seeing significant amount of safe haven bids in the gold market as equity markets have come under pressure due to major concerns on the geopolitical front,” Meger added.
Soaring oil prices and the Ukraine war have slammed appetite for riskier assets. US President Joe Biden announced on Tuesday a ban on Russian oil, with the UK also expected to follow.
Bullion, which has risen nearly 13% this year, is considered a safe store of value during times of geopolitical uncertainty and rising inflation.
Meanwhile, palladium gained another 2.0% after hitting a new high of $3,440.76 an ounce on Monday.

China reveals new burden for world economy www.rt.com

Sanctions against Russia over its military operation in Ukraine will become a new burden for the world economy, which has not yet recovered from the Covid-19 pandemic, said Chinese President Xi Jinping on Tuesday, RIA Novosti news agency has reported, citing Chinese state broadcaster CCTV.
“Relevant sanctions will affect the stability of global finance, energy supplies, transportation, and supply chains and will further burden the global economy, which has been under the heavy burden of the pandemic, and that is disadvantageous to all parties,” Xi said, speaking at a virtual meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.
The Chinese leader also added that China, France, and Germany should make efforts to reduce the negative impact of the crisis, and jointly support peace talks between Russia and Ukraine, to prevent the conflict from escalating or “spinning out of control,” RIA Novosti says.
The EU has imposed several rounds of severe sanctions against Russia, targeting the country’s banking and industrial sector, freezing Moscow’s foreign reserves, and causing a mass exodus of foreign businesses from the country.
China has refused to condemn Russia’s actions in Ukraine and has consistently called for a negotiated diplomatic solution to the conflict.
Trade between Russia and China has been booming despite events in Ukraine. According to Chinese customs data released on Monday, the trade turnover between the two countries increased by nearly 39% in the first two months of this year compared to the same period last year, exceeding $26 billion.
