The Mirny team became a nominee at the Autumn Cup of the CASE-IN championship

The Mirny team became a nominee at the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN". 69 youth teams from 15 regions of Russia competed for the main prizes. The final was held in Moscow.

Who speaks first determines the lot. The autumn cup of the CASE-IN championship in Moscow brought together the strongest teams. They include schoolchildren, students, and young professionals from all over Russia, for whom it is not difficult to solve any engineering case.

Since 2018, ALROSA has been a strategic partner of the project, so some of the company's employees participate in the championship as experts: they share their experience and knowledge with the participants. This time, on behalf of the company, the contestants had to think about how enterprises operating in permafrost conditions could reduce the emission of harmful substances into the atmosphere.

NATALIA PETUKHOVA, Head of the ALROSA Personnel Recruitment and Development Center: "Traditionally, we have already supported 2 areas of Exploration and Mining. But we plan not to stop there. We have ideas in other areas. I hope that they will be implemented and we will support more areas of the championship."

ALROSA's young specialists also qualified for the championship finals. The Myrnin girls, the Kimberlite team, won the "TOP 6 Best Engineering Case Solutions" nomination.

NATALIA IVANOVA, captain of the Kimberlite team: "The essence of our project is the one hundred percent recycling of ash and slag that remains after burning coal at a thermal power plant. This issue is currently relevant, especially for Siberia and the Far East. Where most of the thermal power plants are coal-fired. We are very glad that we were able to personally attend the defense of the case. And take part in this event."

According to the results of the "CASE-IN", 70 people won. The student champions will receive additional USE points upon admission to the partner universities of the project. Students will be able to enroll in postgraduate and master's degree programs on preferential terms. And career opportunities await young employees of industry companies. The best participants will also attend industry youth educational forums.
