Iranian Mines Are Thirsty for Foreign Investment

Ebrahim Jamili, Managing Director of Zarrin Industrial & Mining Group

The foreign investment should not be limited to technology transfer and contract based works rather we have to focus on entrance invest to the country. Ebrahim Jamili, said:” the people dealing in mining sector welcome the foreign investment but it’s unreasonable that the foreign parties try to force us to merely use their contractual works in our mining and mine industries.” He added: ” Iran has good potential to attract foreign investment in lead and zinc industries. We can utilize the capabilities of foreign parties.” Jamili also pointed out: “We had only shadow mine exploration in Iran and need foreign investor for deep mine exploration operations. The Iranian parties should search for capable foreign partners and try to attract them and utilize their capabilities in exploration of minerals, mining operations and processing of minerals.” The Managing Director of Zarrin Industrial & Mining Group added: ” The Iranian market is thirsty for foreign investment and we have to search for foreign investors in lead and zinc sector just like iron ore and steel industries. He added: “The capabilities of Iranian mines have not been accurately introduced to the foreign parties; we have had some problems in this sector.”
