The Ferrexpo Group owns Poltava and Yeristovo Mining and Processing Plants (GOKs) in Ukraine, which extract iron ore and process it into iron ore pellets. This raw material is used to make steel using coke-free technology, which has a lower environmental impact. As a result, pellets are in constant demand.

In an interview with LIGA.net, a Ukrainian online magazine, Wolfram Kuoni, Director of Ferrexpo, spoke about the negative consequences of the war on the company and the problems faced by the Ukrainian authorities. He explains how the government is putting pressure on the company and why Poltava Mining is reducing production.
