"There will be a lot of gold; I have a promise that the salary will go to 100.000"

The launch of work of the mine was made official when the President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vui, Director for Business Abroad of Zidjin, Jinyue Qiu and the Ambassador of China to Serbia, Chen Bo pressed the button. The ceremony is being held as part of the Mine Flotation complex.

"Three years ago, a great friend of Serbia, Xi Jinping, had certain vision, and we are proud of our relations with China. It is not easy to always represent a small country that tries to be independent and sovereign, because you always have those whose interests will be interrupted. Regardless of that, together with our Chinese partners, we have always managed to overcome difficulties", said Vucic.
Two of the three largest exporters in Serbia come from China, he noted.
"In 2018, the average salary in RTB Bor was 68.000 dinars, today it is 98.200, and I have a promise from Zidjin that the salary will reach 100.000," he announced. The salary in Bor today is 647 euros, and it was 428 euros.
"Earnings in Bor increased by 55% in just a few years, and will continue to grow. Zidjin contributed the most to that," Vucic said.

He also reminded that a square meter in that area used to cost around 300 euros on average, and today around 480 euros.
He also spoke about something that has been said many times - that, with the opening of this mine, Serbia, which is now the fifth copper producer in Europe, will position itself in second place.
"The fact that copper is now sold for over $ 10.000 per ton speaks volumes about that," he emphasized.
