Major repair of the indurating machine Lurga-522-A, reconstruction of the 15-16th section of Ore-dressing Plant-1, construction of Pump Station No.4 are among the biggest investment projects of 2011. Reconstruction of boiler-house No.4 of Heat and Power Department will be carried out till the end of the year.
