The awarding ceremony for contenders and winners will take place at the main stage of the Forum on 7 October.
The finalists of the MineInvest Russia competition will be invited to participate in the third season of the Polymetal competition for junior projects. The company is interested in projects to expand the mineral resource base of operating enterprises and projects aimed at discovering potentially large-scale deposits in Russia and Kazakhstan.

In 2020-2025 Polymetal plans to invest up to $ 60 million in projects developed by exploration companies (this excludes investment in Polymetal’s own exploration projects).
