The government of the Republic of Artsakh once again confirms that the mining industry in Artsakh is carried out according to the highest international standards, to which the regulations defined by the sector's legislation are also aligned.
"Taking into account, however, the unhealthy environment created by the "eco-activists" of the neighboring country and the attempts to mislead the international community, it was decided to contact international organizations to conduct an international ecological examination related to the activities of the "Base Metals" company.
With the company's management, a decision was made to temporarily stop the operation of the company's mine until the examination was completed. The government of the Republic of Artsakh has appealed to the relevant structures of the United Nations and other international professional organizations to organize the examination implementation in a short time.
The government of the Republic of Artsakh has always been in favor of maintaining the best international standards in the mining field and is convinced that international environmental standards should apply to mining companies in the entire region," the statement said.
