Polymetal International is one of the world’s largest producers of primary silver and is one of Russia’s five largest gold mining companies. The Company’s production and exploration facilities are based in four regions of Russia – Magadan, Chukotka, Khabarovsk and Sverdlovsk – and in Kazakhstan.

Polymetal International carries out the full range of deposit development, from exploration to production. One of the key elements of the Company’s strategy is to set up large processing hubs and to position the operations around them in order to maximise staff and cost efficiencies, and to optimise return on investment.

In November 2011 Polymetal International completed its premium listing on the London Stock Exchange (Ticker: POLY). In December 2011 it became one of the first Russian companies to be included into the FTSE 100.
