Mongolia’s Erdenet copper mining operations add another two Russian IZ-Kartex rope shovels www.im-mining.com
Two mine shovels of model EKG-12K (430 t, 24 t payload) made by IZ-KARTEX in St Petersburg, part of UZTM-KARTEX group, were recently commissioned at the mining operations of leading copper mine PGS Erdenet Company in Mongolia. The Mongolian mining company procured new Russian machines within the framework of a company development project.
Erdenet is the leading Mongolian state-owned company engaged in mining and processing copper-molybdenum ore. The company is currently upgrading its facilities: total investments for the previous year amounted to about $245 million.
While implementing their investment program, Erdenet has procured four EKG-12K mine shovels from IZ-KARTEX since 2018: the first one has been supplied in 2018, the second in 2019, and two more machines have been commissioned in December 2020. According to B. Otgondava, the manager of the open pit mine owned by Erdenet, the company decided to procure machines made by IZ-KARTEX because these machines are optimally adapted to the conditions of Mongolian mines.
“We are satisfied with the performance of machines made by IZ-KARTEX. These machines are very reliable and user-friendly. We expect the new machines to show high performance level and stable trouble-free operation”, says the Chief Engineer of the open pit mine, D. Ulammandah.
Today Erdenet company is using 11 different models of earth-moving machinery made by IZ-KARTEX. PGS Erdenet Company is one of the largest Asian mining companies and the leading Mongolian company in the field of mining and processing copper-molybdenum ore. In the year 2020 Erdenet reported processing more than 32.5 Mt of ore. Since 2017 the company has spent more than $27 million towards geological survey works, increasing its ore reserves in the deeper part of the deposit and plotting several prospective areas of the deposit of strategic importance.
