en.Wedoany.com Reported - Russian holding company Seligdar has opened a new road connecting the Khoinoye deposit with the heap leaching site of the Nizhne-Yakokit production complex.

The new road will divert traffic from the A360 Lena River public road, which leads to Yakutsk. At the same time, the cost of transporting ore from the Khoinoye mine to the heap leaching site has significantly decreased, with the transport distance reduced from 31.5 kilometers to 16.5 kilometers, nearly halved.

During the road construction, Seligdar needed to simultaneously build a railway crossing. The company equipped accommodation for employees of the joint-stock company «AK «ZhDYa» and installed a 6-kilowatt power transmission line for the crossing's electricity supply.

The Khoinoye gold ore processing plant was commissioned in the summer of 2025, with a design capacity of 3 million tons of ore per year. According to previous plans, the plant began industrial operations in 2025, targeting the production of 250 kilograms of gold by the end of the year, extracting approximately 1 ton of gold in 2026, and subsequently reaching its design capacity of up to 2.5 tons of gold per year.

The Khoinoye deposit is located in the Aldan region of the Sakha (Yakutia) Republic, with the development license held by Seligdar's subsidiary, Nizhne-Yakokit Mining Company. The deposit's registered balance reserves under categories C1+C2 amount to 16,810 kilograms.
