I`d have never thought I`d find out about mining projects from the news. I`ve been recently looking for information about RUSAL as a potential partner and found out that it`d signed a memorandum and announced cooperation with the European company AA! LAB, that created a project MiningNow. Here`s the link by the way: h ttps://aluminiuminsider.com/rusal-establish-data-center-nadvoitsy-aluminium- smelter-nw-russia/. As it`s become known, they`ll work together on the creation of Data Processing Center in the north of Russia. Before the official announcement of the partnership, RUSAL acted as a lessor. Mining farms of the project were located in specialized premises of the industrial giant. Why did RUSAL decide to strengthen the cooperation? It didn`t take long to find the answer to this question. MiningNow is now actively discussed, mostly in a positive way. Therefore, it`s not surprising that they decided to strengthen relations with the project.
