“Cooperation between Nornickel and the Russian Academy of Sciences helps the scientific community to apply completely new, often unique and expensive methods of scientific research during the expeditions. In addition, the company got an accurate, objective insight into what was happening with the natural elements in the Taimyr Municipal District and Norilsk. This database allowed us to develop eco-programs.”
