On June 5^th at 14:30, the Top Management of MYTCL led by the Managing Director, Mr. Wang Zhentang and Chief Engineer Mr. Shen Ruguo, IT Director & AGM Mr. Du Suzhong, AGM & Safety Director Mr. Liu Jingzhi, and HSE Director & Operations Manager Wallis, along with the Environment & Safety Department, held a small ceremony at the newly renovated Fish Pond Conservation Project on the S&K Mine Site. The ceremony was completed as the managers released into the fish pond baby fish that are indigenous to the area and the waterways.

This project was dedicated to the ongoing conservation efforts of the Myanmar Yang Tse Copper Limited Company to continue to develop and preserve the lands of the mine lease once they have completed their mining purposes. Strategically placed, this Fish Pond Project is in the middle of the MYTCL lease, and home to a diverse range of wildlife and aquatic fauna. The purpose of this project is to nurture and grow fish to maturity, and then to release them into the waters of the Yama Stream, or into the Chindwin River, in order to give back to the environment and fortify the biodiversity of the waterways in and around MYTCL.

U Win Myint and his Environmental Officer U Aung Thet Swe spent many hours preparing the project with their teams. The management of MYTCL was very proud of their hard work and contributions to saving the environment, and their outstanding leadership and preservation of the environment in line with the ISO certification 14001:2015.
