Amur Region begins its presentation at EXPO-2010 in Shanghai.
KHABAROVSK, July 26 (Itar-Tass) -- Russia's Amur Region begins its
presentation at the international universal exhibition EXPO-2010.
The delegation headed by Governor Oleg Kozhemyako has meetings with
Shanghai's businesses and authorities to discuss economic cooperation and
several major projects, a source in the local government said. The Amur
Region presents projects of electricity export to China, and construction
of a metal and mining cluster in the region, a residential complex and a
cement plant.
The metal and mining cluster is planned to go operational by 2016, the
governor said. There are three gold producing enterprises in the region,
and two more are expected to appear in future. By 2012, gold production
should reach 30 tonnes a year. The second line of the Olyokma ore-dressing
and processing enterprise, which went operational in July, will process
2.5 million tonnes of titan ore. The construction of the Garin
ore-dressing and processing enterprise will begin in 2012. Its capacity
will be ten million tonnes of iron ore. With these plants, the Amur Region
may export 15 million tonnes of ore to the Asian-Pacific countries.
The Amur Region's delegation will have a meeting with Director General
of China's State Grid Corporation. Over the previous year, the region
supplied 854 million kilowatt-hour of energy to China. Future supplies are
expected to reach 4.5 billion. The region started the construction of
high-voltage power line 500 in January of the current year, to be
finalised in August. Immediately following this project, the Amur Region
will start the construction of another high-voltage power line to connect
the Amur sub-station with the Chinese border. The region's export energy
potential is very high.
Russia's Minister of Regional Development Viktor Basargin will present
on Tuesday a strategy of social and economic development of the Far East
and Transbaikalia to 2025.
The international universal exhibition EXPO-2010 opened in May, 2010
and will continue its work till the end of October. Russia's Sakha
/Yakutia/ Republic will present its exposition in September.
The Amur Region borders with the Sakha Republic in the north, the
Khabarovsk Territory and the Jewish Autonomous Region in the east, with
China in the south, and the Trans-Baikal Territory in the west. It is
situated about 8,000 kilometres east of Moscow on the banks of the Amur
and Zeya Rivers.
