UMMC - the largest copper producer in Russia

• UMMC - the largest copper producer in Russia

"Ural Mining and Metallurgical Company" (UGMK) - one of the largest metallurgical holdings, which unites more than 40 companies in various industries. The basis of the company - a closed process chain copper production, from raw material extraction to the production of finished products of copper and its alloys. Stake UMMC for 43, 4% Russian copper (1, 8% of the global volume). In addition, the company holds a strong position in the market for zinc, lead and precious metals.

UMMC Head office is located in the town of Verkhnyaya Pyshma near Ekaterinburg.

There is also a factory "Uralelectromed" from which and the establishment of the holding company began.

Production of copper begins with the extraction of raw materials. 9 companies are engaged in the company's mineral complex. Each field has its own characteristics - the same copper content in the ore can be 1, 5%, and on the other - to 2, 5%.

Gaisky Mining (mining plant)

The largest enterprise of raw complex. Located in the city of Orenburg region Guy. There are more than 70% of the region's reserves of copper.

The ore is mined as an open pit and underground mine.

The maximum depth of the lower horizons of mining was 1310 meters.

This is one of the few companies in Russia, the leading copper production at such great depths.

Drilling tunneling system.

Annually company produces about 8 million tons of ore and produces 550 tons of copper concentrate (over 90 tons of copper).

All extracted ore is processed at its own concentrator plant.

To enrich the ore minerals must be separated from gangue minerals valuable, then separate from each other minerals of copper and zinc, and if necessary, lead, if its content in the ore is sufficiently high.

On the concentrator of ore mined produce concentrates. Copper concentrate is sent to the smelters, in particular Mednogorsky copper sulphate plant and Sredneuralsk Copper Smelter in Revda and zinc concentrate - on the zinc plant in Chelyabinsk and "Electrozink" in Vladikavkaz.

North copper-zinc mine of JSC "Svyatogor". Located in the north of the Sverdlovsk region.

It produces copper-zinc ore, which after processing in a crushing and sorting complex is transported to the processing plant, "Svyatogor", located in the city Krasnoural'sk.

In March 2014 completed the development of open pit quarry Tarnerskogo field.

Now the company conducts exploration Shemurskogo and begins to develop a New Shemruksky.

Due to the inaccessibility of the mine, mining is carried out in shifts.

Uchalinsky GOK.

Located in the Republic of Bashkortostan. The company is the largest producer of zinc concentrate in Russia.

Sibay subsidiary of Uchaly GOK.

Sibai pit - the deepest mine in Russia and the second deepest in the world. Its depth is 504 meters, and the diameter - of more than two kilometers.

Now the main production is carried out by mining method.

For the safety of the mine using the remote control VSD (LHD vehicle).

Copper and zinc concentrates produced at the Uchaly GOK, in the future come to Sredneuralsk Copper Smelter "Svyatogor", "Electrozink" Chelyabinsk Zinc Plant.

"Bashkir copper".

The company develops Jubilee field and specializes in the extraction and processing of copper-bearing ores. Copper concentrate is sent to Sredneuralsk Copper Smelter Zinc - at Chelyabinsk Zinc Plant.

At present, the field testing of Jubilee open way, in this regard, the company is building an underground mine.

the underground mine's reserves are estimated by experts in the amount of about 100 million tons, which will provide the company work more than 30 years.

On Haybullinskoy concentrator is equipped with modern equipment from Japan, Australia, South Africa, Italy, Finland and Germany.

Enrichment provides a copper concentrate with a copper content of up to 20%, which is almost 13 times higher than in the ore. The degree of enrichment of zinc even higher - 35 or more times, wherein the mass fraction of zinc in zinc concentrate reaches 50-52%.

Buribaevsky mine.

Combine the mining and enrichment of copper ore, which is sent to Mednogorsky copper sulphate plant. In July 2015 at the GOK launched trunk "Southern" depth of 492 meters with the issue to the surface of the first carriage of the rock mass. The first ore in the shaft will produce in the middle of 2016. Construction of the new facility will increase the design life of the enterprise until 2030.

"Safyanovskaya copper."

The company carries out development Safyanovskoye copper-sulfide deposit, which is located in the Sverdlovsk region and occupies about 3% in the all-Russian production copper-bearing ores.

During the entire period of operation career produced 17, 8 million tons of ore and produced more than 39, 7 million m3 of overburden operations.

To date, its depth is 185 meters (in the long term will increase to 265 meters).

Now completed testing of Safyanovskoye mine open pit, the company moves to underground mining of ore.

In December 2014 was put into operation the first starting complex of the underground mine and produced the first tons of ore.

It is assumed that the extraction of ore from the deeper horizons Safyanovskoye deposits will be maintained for at least 25 years.

The mined ore is supplied for further processing to the processing plant, "Svyatogor", a metallurgical plant, located in the Sverdlovsk region.

Urupsky Mining and Processing Plant.

Extraction and refining of copper-pyrite ore in the foothills of the North Caucasus.

At present, ore extraction is conducted at a depth of 523 meters.

The main type of enterprise is the copper concentrate from the addition of copper, gold and silver extracted.

"Siberia-Polymetal" will.

The company is located in the city of Rubtsovsk, Altai Krai. Main products are copper and zinc concentrates, which are available on Sredneuralsk Copper Smelter and Chelyabinsk Zinc Plant.

"Siberia-Polymetal" will have been created in 1998 in order to revive production of polymetallic ores in the Altai Territory.

The presence of enterprise and Rubtsovskaya Zarechenskaya concentrators allows a complete technological cycle of processing of mined ore.
