The lead and zinc mine “Toranica” in Kriva Palanka, North Macedonia, has officially resumed operations, marked by a ceremonial event in partnership with its new operator, the Bulgarian firm “Minstroj.” This reopening follows Minstroj’s acquisition of annual mining rights for €2 million, which include both the “Zletova” and “Toranica” mines. Minstroj has announced plans to re-employ around 100 workers across the two mines, which were previously under the management of “Indo Minerali.” The move is expected to bring significant economic activity back to the region.
