ARMZ Uranium Holding Co. delegation takes part in 39th WNA Symposium
On September 10–12, the delegation of JSC Atomredmetzoloto led by Director General Vladimir Verkhovtsev visited the 39th Symposium of the World Nuclear Association in London.
The delegates took an active part in the Symposium; a number of business meetings were held. On September 12, managers of ARMZ Uranium Holding Co. met with Agneta Raising, WNA Director General. Vladimir Verkhovtsev noted that the World Nuclear Association provides a convenient venue for networking and also gives an insight into challenges faced by the global market of uranium raw material. Cooperative efforts also allow making near-future forecasts. Agneta Raising noted that she met with all companies of the Nuclear Fuel Cycle and came to the conclusion that “many companies are now facing uneasy times.”
Agneta Raising expressed her hope for a close involvement of JSC Atomredmetzoloto representatives in activities of the WNA working groups, as well as in compiling the Association’s Annual Report. This document is submitted to all WNA members, as well as to the UK Government. Agneta Raising welcomed the ARMZ Uranium Holding Co. delegation’s initiative to include information about successful CSR-related experience of ROSATOM State Atomic Energy Corporation’s mining arm into the Annual Report of the Association. It is primarily concerned with contribution to the Programme for the Development of Public Infrastructure in Krasnokamensk mono-city, the Trans-Baikal Territory, where JSC PIMCU is located.
