Russia plans to use the experience of Canada in the field of geological exploration of domestic gold fields, that will take place through the attraction of startup private companies to invest funds in the conduction of geological surveys of the country’s gold fields.
These plans have been recently confirmed by Sergey Donskoy, Russia’s Minister of Natural Resources.
According to the Russian Ministry of Natural Resources, to date, the volume of investments, allocated by small startup companies in geological exploration of gold fields in Russia has been insignificant, not exceeding 10-15% in the overall structure of investments in exploration activities in the Russian gold mining.
