In 2010-2012, the Russian state-owned company ALROSA introduced new technologies for the cost-effective processing of its own mining waste – tailings.
However, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (Russia) thinks differently. The ministry thinks that “ALROSA is unlicensedly extracting minerals in the subsoil area, which is on the state balance sheet. For the period from 2010 to 2012 ALROSA illegally mined more than 1.7 million carats of diamonds.”
The Federal Service for Supervision of Natural Resources (Rosprirodnadzor; Russian) wanted to bring to administrative or criminal liability the innovators which developed technologies for recicling diamonds from own tailings of ALROSA’s.
