March 17, Fineko/abc.az. Deputy chairman of the board of AzerGold Khayyam Farzaliyev told about some plans for the future at the presentation of the book "Mineral Exploration & the Basics of the Mining Industry".

ABC.AZ reports that Farzaliyev said that during the period of its operation AzerGold exported 287,000 ounces of gold and 530,000 ounces of silver to the international market.
