The construction of the railroad around Ukraine for the Crimean Titanium Works in Armyansk will begin in 2018.
According to the so-called minister of internal policy of the Russia-occupied Crimea Andrey Vasyuta, the railroad will be used to transport ammonia to the company. Previously the station has been in Ukraine. As the works lacks the raw materials it has to operate only at half of its capacity.
Crimean Titanium is owned by a Ukrainian oligarch Dmitry Firtash. It is the largest manufacturer of titanium dioxide in Eastern Europe. (Ukrainian metal)
