LOCATION: Moscow
ACTIVITIES:
Atomredmetzoloto is a state enterprise and a subdivision of the Ministry of Atomic Energy, and is supervised by First Deputy Minister Vitaliy F. Konovalov.[1] All uranium mining and processing enterprises are incorporated in Atomredmetzoloto.[2] It also has a research institute for developing ore processing techniques and a design institute for designing mining and processing enterprises. Atomredmetzoloto produces mining equipment, synthetic diamonds, and instruments that use synthetic diamonds. Atomredmetzoloto and its affiliates are the only companies that mine uranium in the CIS.[3]
