Eurasian Resources Group (ERG) has committed over 350 million tenge towards enhancing social infrastructure in the Karaganda region of Kazakhstan. This investment aims to ensure the stable operation of local utilities, including heating and water supply, while also providing assistance to low-income families. The agreement was formalised through a memorandum of cooperation signed by the Governor of Karaganda region, Ermaganbet Bulekpaev, and ERG’s General Director in Kazakhstan, Kudrat Shamiyev.
A significant portion of the funds will be allocated to the communal infrastructure of Shubarkol, where ERG will procure coal and electricity for the local boiler house. The company will also cover the operational costs, including staff salaries, transportation, and maintenance of the facility. Additionally, ERG will continue to manage the sewage pumping station and the intra-village water supply networks, ensuring that essential services remain uninterrupted for the community.
In a further effort to support the local population, ERG plans to distribute 500 tonnes of coal to underprivileged families in the Nura district. Kudrat Shamiyev emphasised the importance of social projects that deliver tangible benefits to the communities in which the company operates, highlighting ERG’s commitment to addressing specific local challenges.
This initiative is part of ERG’s broader strategy of corporate social responsibility, which has seen the company previously invest in community development projects. Notably, in 2025, ERG constructed modern children’s and sports playgrounds in Shubarkol to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Shubarkol Komir JSC. Such efforts reflect ERG’s ongoing dedication to fostering sustainable development and improving the quality of life for residents in the regions it serves.
