Boroo is an open-pit gold mining complex that has been in industrial development since 1973. Boroo’s operation began in 2003 and declared its commercial production on March 1, 2004.
Location
Located 110 kilometers northwest of Ulaanbaatar, the country’s capital.
While Boroo is located in a relatively remote area of the world, it is well positioned with respect to existing infrastructure. The paved all-weather Ulaanbaatar–Irkutsk highway passes within three kilometers of the mine site. The main Trans-Mongolian railway, which links Ulaanbaatar with Irkutsk, Russia and Beijing, China, runs through Baruunkharaa, about 20 kilometers to the north of the mine site.
Mineralization
The Boroo gold deposit is generally flat lying or sub-horizontal and extends over an area measuring 2.5 by 1.5 kilometres. Throughout the area, a series of mineralized zones occur up to 400 metres wide and typically average from 10 to 30 metres in thickness.
