ALROSA is one of the strategic partners of the CASE-IN Championship

This year, for the first time, ALROSA acted as a strategic partner. The "CASE-IN" championship in the areas of "geological exploration" and "mining".

The VII International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN" is being held in Krasnoyarsk at the Siberian Federal University (SibFU). Recall that this project is part of the Russia — Land of Opportunity platform, created on the initiative of the President of Russia. Vladimir Putin. This is an international competition system for solving engineering cases among schoolchildren, students and young specialists in the fuel and energy and mineral resource complexes.

The selection stage of the Student League "CASE-IN" in the fields of "Mining" and "Electric Power Industry" was held at SibFU. During the competition, students presented solutions to an engineering case, a real production task based on materials from partner companies of the CASE–IN championship. The participants were given only ten days to solve the case.

The Mining case concerns the development of a placer diamond deposit Solur-Vostochnaya on the territory of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). The case was developed based on materials and with the participation of specialists from ALROSA.

The championship is held in 57 universities in Russia and the CIS countries. During the qualifying stages - in February – May 2019 - more than 7,000 future and young engineers of fuel and energy and mineral resources complexes solve engineering cases on a single topic of the championship "Digital Transformation" - one of the priority topics for the Russian and global economies.
