The Kaliningrad authorities do not see in Ukrainian "antariksh" competitors
The Kaliningrad authorities do not believe that the extraction of amber in Ukraine will be able to compete with the amber industry in the Kaliningrad region, said Last news acting Minister for industrial policy, entrepreneurship development and trade of the region Dmitry Chemakin.
first in the Ministry of environment of Ukraine said that Ukraine occupies a leading position in the world reserves of amber, and 1st place in the world for its quality. In Poland and Russia the proportion of gem quality stones is 10-15%, and in Ukraine - 25%. In addition, a small Depth leads to the fact that the cost of production of Ukrainian raw amber 20-40% lower in Kaliningrad.
"Explored the accumulation of Ukrainian deposits of less than two orders of magnitude in comparison with Kaliningrad. On analysis, it 3, 5 thousand tons. Much less and concentration: if in the Kaliningrad region is about five grams per meter, Ukraine - 80 grams, " said Chemakin.
in Kaliningrad amber is mined close to the village of Amber (Previously Palmnicken), where about 90% of the world's reserves of amber, whose age is about 50 million years. Accumulation of the mineral in the largest seaside field are estimated at 116, 9 thousand tons. Kaliningrad Amber factory is the only enterprise in the world, engaged in industrial quarrying.
"The depth of amber in the Rivne and Zhytomyr regions less than 2-3 meters, but a lot of illegal mining, which knocks the price, as long as it is outside the law. Exchange, until no rules for the extraction of raw materials, is impossible, because this message is theoretical. Practice will show the formation of a legislative base for the extraction, " said Chemakin.
before referring to the Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk stated that the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine wishes in September to sign up to the Parliament to approve the necessary laws to allow mining of amber in the country. Illegal mining of amber in Ukraine has been thriving for many years, as there is no legislative regulation of quarrying. Military confrontation with smuggling, and state agencies are preparing a law on permission of mining of amber. The Ministry of environment of Ukraine initiates the development of the amber exchange in Rivne to increase the sales productivity of amber.
