Metinvest intends to implement anti-crisis measures at its Mariupol Ilyich Iron and Steel Works.
In particular it is suggested using iron ore raw materials wastes to produce sinter in view of undersupplies of sinter ore via railroad.
“We intend to implement new methods of operation providing for the more efficient usage of secondary materials, thus avoiding raw materials shortage and the shut down of the manufacturing process. Thus we have insured ourselves against the possible risks of an altogether stop of deliveries from Kriviy Rih”, the company said.
Metinvest has not confirmed this information. (Ukrainian metal)
