Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- Today, the President of Uzbekistan is visiting the Almalyk Mining and Metallurgical Combine (AGMK) to get acquainted with the work on expanding the production of non-ferrous and precious metals based on the AGMK deposits.
AGMK is implementing a large project to develop the Yoshlik I field. The head of state will lay the first stone in the construction of the third copper-processing plant (MOF) within the framework of this project.
