Ulaanbaatar /MONTSAME/ On June 9, Friday, Prime Minister J.Erdenebat attended an inauguration ceremony of Mongolyn Alt Corporation’s ‘MAK – Euro cement’ factory, and remarked on its potential to minimize cement import.

Located in Dalanjargalan soum of Dornogobi aimag, the ‘MAK – Euro cement’ factory will manufacture a world standard product to replace imported cement. The cement factory will manufacture not only multi-purpose cement but also acid and water resistant cement.  Mongolia’s annual cement demand is estimated to be more than 2 million tons.



The Prime Minister said, “The Cabinet will always stand by companies and individuals that are making a concrete contribution to prosperity of Mongolia”.

The newly inaugurated factory is estimated to create about 900 jobs, garner annual MNT 35 billion for tax and replace import worth USD 70-75 million.

In the frameworks of the factory construction, 1.9 km railroad was built from Olon-Ovoot rail port, and 65 km long power transmission line was set up from Choir city of Gobisumber aimag alongside a substation.
