In Kazakhstan, an American company starts mining

Hexagon Mining is increasing its presence in Kazakhstan after signing an agreement on two promising mines Bozshakol and Aktogay, which are owned and operated by KAZ Minerals. The high-growth American copper company is focused on large-scale, low-cost open pit mining.

KAZ Minerals are focused on modernizing their mining, so they chose Hexagon Mining based not only on its technologies, but also because of the innovative proposals of the large Hexagon group. The deal will also strengthen Hexagon Mining's business strategy in the region. The company has a permanent office in Almaty.

“The reason for entering the Kazakhstan market is to grow the business in this strategically important region,” said Alan Bradford, director of sales for Hexagon Mining in the region. “We want to introduce as many business solutions as possible for the Kazakhstani developing economy. Kazakhstan fits very well with our strategic goals for introducing innovative solutions to progressive markets. Kazakhstan is moving towards best practices in the industry and Hexagon Mining empowers its partners to use the best technologies. "

“In its first five-year plan, Hexagon Mining wants to make a significant contribution to the technological development of mining in Kazakhstan,” said Bradford. “We are ready to invest and create a hub with advanced technology. We want to cultivate this partnership through learning and sharing technical knowledge as the first step in a long-term commitment. ”

It is planned to deploy production at Bozshakol using high-precision machines operating on the basis of the WiMAX network infrastructure. WiMAX is a family of wireless standards, and its deployment at Bozshakol is a Hexagon Mining innovation. In response to customer requirements, Hexagon Mining is currently supporting the needs of its partners.

“I am absolutely confident that our successful deployment to Bozshakol will be repeated in Aktogay,” Bradford said. "We look forward to expanding our presence in Kazakhstan with a strong local team and will focus on helping our partners achieve best practice."
