The gold mining company ZAO Artel Prostateley (Vitim) receives feedback from former and current personalities through social networks. The official press does not pamper the organization with attention. The office itself does not suit the press conference once again. Because money loves silence.
Identification
The Artel of Prospectors CJSC (Vitim), registered in the city of Bodaibo, keeps reviews of its activities under control. After all, the authors of messages can be not only employees, but also residents, and competitors.
The study of the biography of any person or company begins with the date of birth. The biography of AS Vitim contains two essential steps:
1974 - an artel was created at the Lenzoloto plant.
2002 - a closed joint-stock company, TIN 3802007817, OGRN 1023800733901, was organized.
The registration code contains the following information:
- 1 - initial registration of a legal entity;
- 02 - the last two digits of the year of registration - 2002;
- 38 - code of the subject of the Federation - Irkutsk region;
- 00 - code of the inspection department where the company is registered;
- 73390 - serial number of the application;
- 1 - check digit.
Validation is easy:
- 102380073390: 11 = 9307279389. The fractional residue is discarded.
- 9 307 279 399 * 11 = 102380073389.
- 102 380 073 390 - 102 380 073 389 = 1 - last, the check digit of the OGRN is the same, the code is correct.
It is hoped that the rest of the information from the official site will also be true.
AS Vitim CJSC has 186 competitors in the field, but in terms of revenue, the company is at the forefront, occupies a place in the fourth ten of 47 thousand registered Irkutsk legal entities. State statistics are a source of reliable information.
Employer
A non-public organization with an authorized capital of 15.1 million rubles has a sole co-owner.
In the Top 20 gold mining companies over the past 6 years, the artel has held 13-15th place in terms of the volume of metal mined - 2.3 tons of world equivalent. In parallel, small volumes of silver and platinum group metals are mined .
The mining conditions have changed over 43 years. In the initial period, gold lay "on the surface", it was enough to use simple equipment, dig a maximum of 5 meters - and the mining is in the hands. Gradually, the top layer was depleted. Introduced a new technology - inclined shaft of a mine with a depth of 50 meters or more. The old-timers of the mines convey memories of how easy and friendly they worked before. Mining operations have become more complicated, so the discrepancy between the past and the present gives rise to a variety of emotional reviews of the workers of Artel Prostolnik CJSC, Vitim.
A base was required for the development of deposits at any time of the year, not only along the banks of rivers, but also in Far Taiga. The list of machines and mechanisms on the balance sheet of the office according to data for 2015 looks impressive:
- Excavators - 46.
- Bulldozers - 216.
- Dump trucks - 70.
- Special equipment - 60.
The listed auto fleet allows mining all year round, and flushing and delivery of goods in the spring and autumn, as soon as the rivers open and until they freeze. The equipment was acquired both domestic and imported.
So that the fleet does not stand idle, the company leases construction vehicles and equipment with an operator for rent.
Roads, roads
The organization does not spare money on mechanization, but in the face of endless sanctions, it is necessary to look for reserves within the country, including in search of spare parts. Searches are not always effective. Therefore, there are reviews of drivers: ZAO “Artel Prostateley” (Vitim) saves on spare parts, and at the end of the season lowers the technical specifications for vehicle breakdowns.
Of course, the zealous owner is trying to reanimate the existing defective part. But the practice of punishing the driver in rubles for the injured equipment not through his fault is outrageous, and this most often slips in the reviews.
In reviews, such a painful topic is often discussed: in taiga spaces there are no roads, there are only directions. Heavy equipment delivered to the mine remains there, since off-road export is comparable to the cost of exported.
In the conditions of the city, the issue of the condition of roads in the Bodaibo district is under constant control of the Directorate of Roads of the Irkutsk Region. Wetlands, permafrost and heavy floods make it difficult to build reliable and strong roads.
The banks of the river, where gold was first mined, look like lunar landscapes. Reclamation of the disturbed territory is an expensive undertaking. The state is more interested in yellow metal than in restoring land to a habitable condition, employees write with sadness.
Without the help of city-forming enterprises, road services cannot cope. Therefore, the company reports on the website that it is helping the municipality. Of course, this is the first thing, because the heavy equipment of gold miners paves the way.
Town. Housing. Canteen
There are no 3-4-5 star hotels in Bodaibo. The president does not hunt for bears, and the leadership lives in their own homes, miners joke in the reviews. Recruited workers are placed in all possible areas: rental housing, trailers, a school gym.
By the way, the question of building a new high school building is still on the agenda of the deputy corps.
A positive touch about the company: in the list of branches of the enterprise is not only the extraction of gold ore and sand, but also socially significant areas. The charter of the organization indicates livestock. The enterprise itself is engaged in crop production. He tries to avoid dependence on the vagaries of nature and the zigzags of the economy.
Employees of Vitim miners' Artel CJSC send mixed reviews: some praise the dining room menu and the rations ration; others are unhappy with the scarcity of the assortment. The correct calculation of the food stock for remote areas, the initial planning of a complete diet and control by the management of the targeted use of finances will help improve the climate in the team and increase labor productivity.
In addition to caring for food, the management issued permits for logging and operations with wood - the basis of low-rise construction in settlements remote from the center. They sawed themselves, shrugged, impregnated; the house was assembled, finished.
Health care
Gold miners work in remote corners where medical services are not available. Only strict adherence to safety regulations saves you from injuries and the need for first aid. Work sites are equipped with first-aid kits. But applicants for a position on a call are better equipped with their own set of necessary medicines and medical supplies, old-timers wise by experience warn.
There is a hospital in Bodaibo. The control of city deputies is the construction of a new hospital in the village of Artyomovsky.
In order for the employer CJSC “Artel miners Vitim” not to have one-sided feedback, the site would not be hindered by first-hand information: what finances the organization has invested in the city’s healthcare system, how the first medical aid is provided at the sites, how the employer helps the injured person production activities.
Workers
The strength of production is in skilled workers. There are tales about recruitment in reviews: about the terrible head of the personnel department, about the heartless administration, about incomplete information about working conditions.
The contingent of those wishing to receive high income is diverse. Reviews about ZAO Vitel prospectors Artel in Bodaibo are full of verbs “reduce”, “cheat”, “fine”. There is staff turnover, otherwise how to explain the company’s website has hundreds of permanent vacancies, starting with a forest feller and ending with a cowherder. Requirements employers are simple: work experience in the specialty is 3 years, only one position has an expanded range of requirements: auto electrician - work experience of more than 5 years, a diploma of special education, knowledge of computer software for mining equipment and cars.
Staff
The company started under the leadership of the honored miner Yuriy Vasilyevich Zharkov. In two years he will be 80 years old. The leadership adheres to the principle of nurturing professionals in their own field. Most mid-level cadres were forged at the enterprise sites.
Geologists, masters of mining, professionals extracting metal from ore and tailings try to train "for themselves."
At the same time, employees complain of a beggarly salary of 40-50 thousand rubles. Maybe for indigenous people this is poverty. They do not know that on the mainland there are jobs for 11-15 thousand.
Prospects
The company is fully self-sufficient in the production cycle. The structure includes exploration units:
- geophysical and geochemical work is underway;
- bowels are studied layer by layer;
- depleted territories are being restored.
Feedback on the established order and prospects for its development flooded the Internet. The development engine for the coming years was the 2015 auction, where the organization won the right to conduct work on the Patom Bolshoi section, the river, above the Maracan mouth of the Bodaibo District. Geologists estimate gold reserves at 1.6 tons. This is close to annual production.
The company has issued permit forms for the operation of road freight and inland water freight transport. Ten self-propelled barges are ready to transport ore to the beneficiation site. Therefore, you can drill the trunks in the winter, and then export the accumulated to the place of extraction of gold.
The opinion of the author may not coincide
In conclusion, the author wants to voice his own point of view on the reviews of the Artel Prospectors company (Vitim).
Yes, in the absence of reasonable external supervision and control, abuse and skipping of official duties are possible. But to write about it in the infinity of the Internet is an unpromising occupation. If you have information on paper, video footage and audio recording of conversations on hand, welcome a statement to the prosecutor.
