The British mining company Anglo Asian Mining (AAM), which specializes in developing gold deposits in Azerbaijan, plans to engage consultants to prepare a feasibility study for the Kharghar and Garadagh deposits in Azerbaijan.
“Anglo Asian Mining continues to work on the feasibility studies for the Kharghar and Garadagh deposits and expects to engage consultants in the coming weeks,” the company said.
The statement notes that pilot mining studies are underway at Garadagh. Specifically, independent third-party organizations are assessing the geological and metallurgical characteristics of the deposit to ensure the most efficient development.
“Plans are also underway to test Kharghar’s ores for processing using copper bioheap leaching,” the statement reads.
AAM reminds that the company’s strategic growth plan envisions its transformation into a mid-tier, diversified copper and gold producer until 2030.
“By that time, copper will have become the company’s primary product, with projected annual production of approximately 50,000-55,000 tons. The company plans to achieve this growth by commissioning three new mines between 2027 and 2030 at Kharghar, Garadagh, and Zafar, in addition to the recently opened Gilar and Demirli mines,” the statement reads.
