    Armenia to use modern technologies to explore uranium deposits,
    minister says


    YEREVAN, May 5. /ARKA/. Exploration of uranium deposits in Armenia will
    be in line with modern standards and methods, said RA Minister of
    Nature Protection Aram Harutyunyan.

    An Armenian-Russian joint venture (JV) recently signed a contract for
    uranium deposit exploration in the country, with Armenia's share in the
    venture to be at least 50%, the Minister said.

    On April 22, Minister Harutyunyan and General Director of
    Atomredmedzoloto Vadim Zhivov signed JV-establishing agreement.

    The Armenian-Russian Mining Company will be licensed in three months.
    Armenian and Russian specialists plan to launch exploration of uranium
    deposits THIS summer.

    Harutyunyan said the JV is to explore uranium deposits in the Syunik
    region. At the same time, the company will elaborate an exploration
    project which, according to the RA Law, is to undergo an ecological
    expert examination. `0'
