Investment Prospects in Ukraine: Exploring New Mineral Deposits

Ukraine has showcased potential mineral deposits that could serve as the foundation for new investment projects.

This was announced by the Minister of Economy, Oleksiy Sobolev.

"Together with a delegation from the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation, we visited the Kirovohrad region to evaluate investment opportunities in extraction and processing", he said.

They explored the Birzulivsky mining and processing plant and the Likarivske deposit – key sites for the Fund's investment portfolio.

"These areas primarily extract titanium ores, with plans for zirconium extraction in the future. There are also potential hafnium deposits, which are used in various technologies", Sobolev added.

He emphasized that Ukraine is a major supplier of titanium globally, which is in high demand in defense, aerospace, and high-tech industries.

Recall that on April 30, 2025, Ukraine and the USA signed an agreement concerning minerals, establishing a joint investment fund to operate Ukrainian resources.
