ALROSA, a major Russian diamond mining company, announced plans to increase its gold production in the Yakutia region in 2026. The company intends to add 3.5 tons of gold to its balance sheet and mine approximately 255 kilograms of gold during the year. This strategic move diversifies ALROSA's resource portfolio beyond diamonds, potentially impacting the regional mining sector and Russia's gold output. The increased gold production aligns with broader trends of resource optimization in Yakutia, a key mining hub.
