metallurgical processing of Mongolian mineral resources
Outotec has agreed on collaboration with the Ministry of Minerals Resources and

semi-products);
- Developing sustainability criteria and analysis for different mining and
metallurgical process options in Mongolia (eco-efficient extraction of metals
and other raw materials, selection of best available technologies);
- Analyzing the environmental impacts of mines and metallurgical processes;
- Developing the legislation and authorities' guidance for sustainable mining
and processing;
- Organizing top-level expertise training, seminars and workshops for the
Mongolian authorities and business people on mining and metallurgical
processing, environmental aspects and sustainability; and
- Developing university-level education and research in mining and metallurgy
(lectures, research programs, arrangement of professorship and researcher visits
to and from Mongolia).
"We are glad to be advising Mongolia in developing the utilization of its
enormous mineral resources. Outotec's expertise of sustainable technologies
covers the whole processing chain from minerals to metals", says Outotec's CEO
Pertti Korhonen.
