‘Today, Navoi Gold, like other companies in the mining industry, faces external factors that impose higher demands on the investment process, in particular – the need for tighter financial management and increased requirements of banks for investment justification, a global decrease in the pace of discovering new deposits, and processing technologies becoming more integrated and complicated. At the same time, the Company, as an industry leader, recognizes the importance of improving the investment process as one of the key areas of transformation, as it ensures the efficiency of capital investments and supports long-term development priorities.’”
