In Tashkent, a 2-ton gold plot was sold at a record price

An important economic event took place in the Tashkent region. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

The "Terekli" plot in the Ohangaron district, which has approximately 2 tons of gold reserves, was sold at a record price. The auction held on August 19 on the E-auction electronic trading platform lasted almost 12 hours.

Strong competition began at this auction, and after 377 bids, the "Toyloq Toza Hudud" company was declared the winner. The company offered 81.79 billion soms, approximately 6.5 million dollars, securing the right to conduct geological exploration and research on this plot.

With this, the starting price of the mine increased nearly 20 times. The "Terekli" plot is located 9.6 kilometers southeast of Shaugaz village and covers an area of 65 hectares.

According to experts' calculations, this area contains approximately 2 tons of gold reserves and holds strategic importance for the country's economy. The "Toyloq Toza Hudud" company was registered in 2021 in the Tayloq district of the Samarkand region.

Its main activity is related to managing multi-story residential buildings. The company's authorized capital amounts to 67.88 billion soms, and its sole owner is Baxtiyor Marupov.

He is also known as the founder of major companies such as "Afrasiab Jeans Textile," "Puremilky Products," "Pet Agro Oil," and "Sam Plast Works." Initially operating in the housing and communal services sector, the "Toyloq Toza Hudud" company is now expanding its activities into gold mining.

This new direction is expected to provide the company with economic opportunities and help it establish a position in the sector. Additionally, on August 20, the "Temirchi" plot in the Navoi region was also sold through an electronic auction.

This mine, with approximately 6 tons of gold reserves, was purchased by the "Zauris" company for 67.8 billion soms. The process of selling gold reserve mines through electronic auctions in the country indicates the entry of private capital into the sector.

This will enhance competition in the economy, create new jobs, and attract investments. Source: zamin.uz.
