The Saudi Mauritanian Metals and Steel Company (Takamul – Limited Liability Company) was established. As a joint venture between the Saudi Basic Industries Corporation (SABIC), and the Mauritanian Company for Industry and Mines (SNIM) on December 12 – December 2012.<\/p>\n

The company plans to develop the Atomai site, which is rich in iron ores. It is located 30 km west of the city of Zouerate. And 8 kilometers north of Avderik in the state of Tires-Zemmour, located in the north-east of the Islamic Republic of Mauritania.<\/p>\n

The project aims to manufacture high quality iron pellets. Using magnetite ores and by direct reduction technology.<\/p>\n

The mine will be of an open type and will work with known mineral extraction methods. It will have a production capacity of 10 million tons per year. Production is expected to start around 2026.<\/p>\n

The iron processing stage goes through two factories:
1. A dry and wet processing plant within the Atomae site
2. A plant for converting iron into balls located in the south of the Nouadhibou Peninsula, to the west of the port of the SNIM company.<\/p>\n

The two factories are linked by a railway – currently being built – with a length of 640 km owned by SNIM Company. Iron pellets will be exported from the port of SNIM to the Saudi Iron and Steel Company (Hadeed), a subsidiary of SABIC, or to other international markets.<\/p>\n

The project site is not currently provided with basic infrastructure, such as roads and railways, Although there is a railway system belonging to the SNIM company linking the mineral port of Nouadhibou to the iron extraction sites located near the city of Zouerate, There is a secondary road about 15 km from the site of the Atomai project to the east.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n \t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
