Two years ago, having overcome the first shock of the news of the russian attack, living in close proximity to the enemy and frequent shelling, members of the veteran organisation of the Ingulets GOK decided to act. Many years of work at the plant taught them to work well, and not to sit with their hands folded. They got together, discussed the problem and joined the noble cause of volunteering, and they are still doing this.Every day, from morning until noon, tireless and caring people gather in the premises of the InGOK Veterans Council. Here, they weave, make, collect, discuss and prepare the aid for defenders. During a full-scale war, a new important area was added to the usual work of the organisation - volunteering. In addition, in order to keep in touch with each of the more than 4.5 thousand veterans of the enterprise, Council members learn about the urgent needs of the soldiers on the front line and try to help as much as possible. The chairman of the organisation, Nadiia Kov

Kamet Steel's rolling shop has mastered the production of grinding balls of 100 mm in diameter at production line #1 of the ball rolling section. Now Kamet Steel produces 100 mm grinding balls using two production lines.Сергій Мішурін Grinding balls of 100 mm in diameter are the largest balls that Kamet Steel produces today. Production of these balls was launched at the plant almost a year ago at production line #2 of the ball rolling section.

They are used to grind ore in ball mills at mining and processing plants.To master the production of 100 mm balls at production line #1, the rolling specialists upgraded the equipment according to their own drawings. In particular, the rolling stand was re-equipped, the design of cartridges and mill screws was changed.

Metinvest's Central Iron Ore Enrichment Works continues to improve the equipment maintenance and repair process. Specialists of the beneficiation plant have recently upgraded the spiral classifier.A scheduled repair of the spiral of the KSN 2.4×12.5 classifier was carried out as planned. All its components – blades and spokes – were restored. To avoid rapid wear of the blades, the specialists applied a protective outer lining – rubber liners – which will increase the service life of the equipment by 20%.The spiral classifier operates in tandem with the MShTs 3.6×5.0 grinding mill and plays an important role in the initial stage of concentrate production, ensuring the grinding of ore. The equipment is designed to separate ferrous ore in the water environment by size and density. The accuracy and efficiency of this process have a direct impact on the quality of the products and the overall productivity of the plant.

It's been two years since the humanitarian sector became a part of the life and work of Metinvest's Kryvyi Rih enterprises. In the warehouses of the mining and processing plants, miners volunteered to pack food parcels that were delivered to the city as part of the Saving Lives humanitarian project.

It will be delivered to single mothers and people with disabilities. This time, the country-men received nearly 30,500 cans of meat and 3,800 hygiene kits.

Even in peaceful times, one could not imagine operations at Metinvest Pokrovskcoal's sites without their female employees. In the time of war, when men are fighting for the country, this fact takes on a new meaning. Today an increasing number of members of the "fairer" sex are working underground and making a significant contribution to the victory.Liudmyla Soldatenko, a miner of the underground mine transport section of CG "Pokrovs'ke", is one of the company's female employees working underground. She began her career as an underground miner almost three years ago. Before that, she had worked for 17 years as a pump plant operator. She learned the ropes of the underground trade at the company's Employee Training and Development Centre - and she does not regret her choice."Of course, sometimes it's not easy," says Liudmyla, "but I don't complain, I like my job. My husband Serhii and my son Vitalii also work at the colliery group. Together, we stand strong on the production front. Furth

In an interview with The Telegraph, Yuriy Ryzhenkov, CEO of Metinvest Group, warned of the consequences of a possible Kremlin victory. Below is an adapted version of the original interview.“I don’t believe that if Ukraine fails, Putin will stop,” said Metinvest CEO Yuriy Ryzhenkov in an interview ahead of the two-year anniversary of the war in Ukraine. “The Baltic states, Poland, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia are the next targets.”Ryzhenkov’s comments were made just days before Putin threatened the US with a global war that will “bring humanity to the brink” if Capitol Hill deploys troops to Ukraine.ContextPutin’s iron grip on power was demonstrated again last week after Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny died while being held in a prison close to the Arctic Circle. His suspected poisoning has been described as a watershed moment for modern Russia as an increasingly insecure Kremlin tries to quash dissent.Yuriy Ryzhenkov, who has run the international steel and mining group Metinve
