Excerpt from the document “Industrial and environmental projects of SPECZASHCHITA” dated 26 October 2026.

The new profiles are based on information provided by Sergey Leonidovich Sokolov on 26 October 2026. All amounts, capacities, payback periods and market estimates below are reported parameters. No technical, financial or legal review has been conducted. Financing and the participation of the named companies have not been confirmed.

Working code SZ-IND-20261026-03

Investment scenarios: 50, 100, 150 or 200 million USD, depending on capacity and the mix of metals recovered. The reported payback period is 1 year. The annual value of recovered gold alone is stated to be at least 2.5 billion USD. The estimated value of the gold contained in the waste is 100 billion USD, excluding other precious and rare earth metals.

To be clarified: the exact location and owner of the waste dumps, processing rights, independent sampling, metal grades, recovery rates, annual capacity and residual waste. The estimated value of metal contained in the waste must be distinguished from revenue, profit and project value; the reference gold price and valuation date are required.

The status of the current entries is: included for project development.
