Ingulets Iron Ore Enrichment Works (Ingulets GOK) is a mining and processing plant which produces metallurgical products. The company is based in Kryvy Rih, Ukraine.[1] Ingulets GOK sources iron ore from the deposits of ferruginous (iron oxide-containing) quartzite at the Ingulets deposit.[2]

History

Production

GOK currently mines iron ore from its one open-pit quartzite field through a process of drilling and blasting, and by the removal of overburden to external dumps. The iron ore is then transported by rail to, and refined at, Ingulets GOK’s beneficiation and flotation facilities.[4] The Company's product range includes granite overburden goods, expanded plastic goods and community services.[5]
In 2009, Ingulets GOK’s output was 11.3 million tonnes of merchant iron ore concentrate.[6]

GOK's infrastructure includes 17 structural units (workshops), among them 7 principal ones.[7]
