en.Wedoany.com Reported - Russia's tin company, Rusolovo (ПАО «Русолово»), will begin construction of the Amur Metallurgical Plant in the Khabarovsk Krai this year, with commissioning scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2028 and full design capacity expected by 2029. The completion of this plant will enable the company to form a complete production cluster encompassing mining, beneficiation, and metal smelting.

Currently, Rusolovo operates two production bases: the Solnechny Production Complex and the Pravourmiysky Production Complex, both located in the Khabarovsk Krai. According to Igor Korytov, General Director of ORK JSC, a subsidiary of Rusolovo, the company currently mines ore at the Molodyozhny mine within the Solnechny Complex and processes it at a beneficiation plant, after which tin concentrate is sold to the Novosibirsk Tin Plant for metal production. Igor Korytov stated that the company's goal is to build a full industrial chain cluster, and to this end, construction of the Amur Metallurgical Plant will begin in 2026.

The plant is designed with an annual capacity of 8,300 tons of refined tin. The project was initiated in 2018, when Rusolovo acquired assets in the Solnechny and Verkhnebureinsky districts of the Khabarovsk Krai, aiming to revitalize Russia's tin industry. From 2018 to 2025, investments in the cluster's construction have totaled 7.7 billion rubles.

In recent years, the company has been continuously modernizing its existing capacities, adopting the latest technologies and complying with environmental standards. From 2018 to 2025, investments in the Pravourmiysky Complex alone amounted to 4 billion rubles. By 2028, the ore processing capacity of the Pravourmiysky beneficiation plant is expected to increase from 290,000 tons to 450,000 tons, while the Solnechny beneficiation plant's capacity will rise from 370,000 tons to 600,000 tons.

In terms of production plans, Rusolovo has raised its 2026 production target to 4,000 tons of tin. In 2025, the company produced 3,500 tons of tin concentrate, a 42% increase compared to 2024. The relevant project plans were disclosed by Igor Korytov during a press tour of the Solnechny Production Complex.
