Two potential new projects
• Dzuun tsagaan del fluorspar deposit
4.4 million tons of fluorspar ores in category C1+C2
underground ore body. /Former Soviet Union standard /
Fluorspar ore grading is 29.10% with an average CaCO3 content of 7.39%.
Mining license
Mineral resources of fluorspar deposit were approved by the
Council of Mineral Resources under the Ministry of Mineral
Resources and Energy of Mongolia.
Feasibility study prepared by Mongolian Mining Institute
Two new projects
• Ujgen fluorspar deposit
Mining operation since 1981. Still in operation Ore reserve 4.0 million tons of fluorspar ores in category
C1+C2 by former Soviet Union Standard Fluorspar ore grading is 35-36% with an average CaCO3
content of 13% in some ore bodies.
Possibilities to increase ore reserve by conducting additional geological exploration work
Feasibility study of “Urgun” mine -prepared
Environmental assessment report - carried out.
