Oleg Deripaska’s EN+ may enter gold mining, given Russia’s attractive reserves and the industry’s lack of consolidation, first deputy chief executive Artyom Volynets said Wednesday.
“There’s room for more than one Polyus” in Russia, Volynets said, referring to the country’s largest gold mining company.
EN+ will also consider buying coal assets near existing mines as it seeks to boost output to 25 million metric tons in two to three years, from 15 million tons now, Volynets said.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
