Opened quarry discovered in Sverdlovsk region
Here Comes a Brand-New Quartz Plant in Verkhnyaya Salda, Powered by AO "Central-Urals"!
Step right up, folks! Get ready for some exciting news hailing from the heart of Russia—the launch of a spankin' new quartz enrichment plant in the charming town of Verkhnyaya Salda, courtesy of the one and only AO "Central-Urals", a top-notch producer of quartz raw materials.
This ain't just any everyday plant, mind you. The company's gonna be churning out quartz sand, concentrate, and powder, oh boy—including none other than Marshalite! Ever heard of the stuff? It's quite the multitasker, used in numerous industries from glass manufacturing and ceramics to water filtration, construction materials, and even electronics.
The regional head, Denis Pasler, gave the green light for this production, and our buddy Dmitry Ionin, the Deputy Governor of Sverdlovsk Oblast, was on the scene to officiate. Yep, you heard it right, this baby's opening was a big ol' field meeting with the Investment Attraction Agency, where our regional support measures for the investor were all up for discussion.
"We're partnering up closely with investors here," Pasler announced in his Telegram channel. "The focus is on production—and our products are crucial for the nation's industrial might. Today ain't just a grand opening; it's a chance to chat with the folks from the Investment Attraction Agency and talk about what kinds of sweet, sweet support we can offer to keep yet another factory right here in our backyard."
The initial production line rockets out a mighty 50,000 tons of product annually, but they're aiming for the stars—next year, they plan to double that! The company's pulling out all the stops, preparing to ramp up production to 100,000 tons by the end of next 12 months.
Now, let's talk about AO "Central-Urals" for a sec. They're not newbies on the block—far from it. They've got their mitts on one of Russia's biggest regional and national quartz operations, mining the stuff from the Svetlo Reese deposit. What sets their product apart? Pure as the driven snow, that's what. It's some of the best chemical composition you can find in Russia, which makes it perfect for creating high-transparency glass for skyscrapers, automobiles, and electronics alike.
Here's the kicker—previous imports of such glass mainly came from abroad, but with three local factories now in the game, AO "Central-Urals" is aiming to cash in on the domestic market instead. What kind of quartz can they produce, you ask? A gutsy quartz concentrate with an iron content of less than 0.007%—yep, you read that right. They're also eyeing the production of optical glass, a potential big-time player in Russia's industrial scene.
It's worth mentioning that these versatile quartz raw materials play a key role in industries both big and small. From the juicy stuff like glass manufacturing and ceramics to the important stuff like water filtration and construction materials, and even to the techy stuff like electronics and optics, the impact of quartz production is felt far and wide.
Lastly, if you've got an ear for the news, you might have caught wind that a new production of electrical equipment recently opened in nearby Tagil. Guess it's no coincidence that the quartz industry's been picking up steam! This all aligns perfectly with the goals of the national project "Effective and Competitive Economy".
