A laboratory meeting international standards is planned to be established for Azerbaijan’s mining, including metal ores, and metallurgical industries.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports that the initiative is included in the “State Program on the development of the mining, including metal ores, and metallurgical industries for 2027–2030,” approved by President Ilham Aliyev.
Under the document, the existing situation will be assessed and a feasibility study will be prepared for establishing the laboratory, taking into account international experience in the relevant field.
The laboratory’s material and technical facilities will be provided, and the facility will undergo accreditation to ensure compliance with international standards.
It will conduct laboratory analyses and provide services in the relevant sector, supporting more reliable assessments of ore reserves and raw materials.
Laboratories that comply with international standards play an important role in mining by improving the accuracy and comparability of geological and metallurgical analyses. Accreditation also helps ensure that test results meet internationally recognized quality requirements.
