Azerbaijan calls for full value chain in mining and metallurgy
What happened
President Ilham Aliyev stated that the mining industry must create a complete chain, extending from ore extraction to the final product. This requires constructing several plants, including beneficiation, pelletizing, and hot briquetted iron facilities. He also noted that concessions on transportation tariffs are necessary to ensure economic efficiency.
