    ARMENIAN SHOGHAKN DIAMOND CUTTING PLANT MAY RESUME OPERATIONS, NEWSPAPER SAYS

    YEREVAN, January 22. /ARKA/. Shoghakn, one of the biggest Armenian
    diamond cutting plants, is going to resume its operations, general
    director of the plant Sergey Gasparyan said, as quoted by Novoye
    Vremya newspaper.

    According to the newspaper, the plant's production capacity is up to
    20,000 carats per year. The number of staff in the company will be
    300 people by spring, Gasparyan said.

    A change of ownership took place in the company, as Israeli billionaire
    Lev Levaev sold his "Armenian" business to other foreign businessmen,
    Gasparyan said, yet refraining from giving the news stockholders'
    names.

    Gasparyan expressed confidence the enterprise will not have any staff
    lack problems. About 1,800 people were employed in the company before
    2008-2009.

    According to the general director, the company is planning to open
    a training center for young specialists.

    The enterprise will be considering options of raw diamond imports from
    Russia, Africa and the Netherlands already this month, Gasparyan said.

    In Levaev's times, the plant was operated under tolling terms, but now
    the staff will have to master both the diamond cutting and commercial
    skills, the general director said as cited by the newspaper. -0--
