Almalyk Mining and Metallurgical Complex (AGMK), one of Uzbekistan’s leading industrial enterprises, is not only a cornerstone of the nation’s economy but also a key player in expanding international industrial ties. The complex is actively collaborating with foreign companies, embracing modern technologies, boosting production efficiency, and committing to environmental sustainability.
On May 29, AGMK hosted a significant meeting with representatives from the Czech company Draslovka to explore mutually beneficial cooperation.
Draslovka, a family-owned company founded in 1906, specialises in chemical technologies, products, and services that enhance efficiency and sustainability across the mining, agricultural, and processing industries. With business units in seven countries and a presence in over 80 nations, Draslovka is the world’s largest producer of sodium cyanide, a chemical essential for gold extraction.
However, the company’s most notable contribution to the industry is its patented glycine leaching technology. This innovative method offers a more stable and economical approach to the leaching process. Draslovka also produces other speciality chemicals and reagents, provides leading chemical application services for mining and pest control, and offers AI-powered support services.
During their visit, the Draslovka representatives presented an overview of their operations to AGMK’s management. Discussions focused on the potential application of glycine leaching technology at AGMK’s facilities, culminating in an agreement to commence cooperation.
The Czech delegation also had the opportunity to visit the viewing platforms of the Kalmakyr and Yoshlik I mines.
