Dashkesen Filizsaflashdyrma JSC, which is a part of Azerbaijan Steel Production Complex CJSC, has signed a leasing and warranty contract for supply of mining trucks from Belarus.

The enterprise will purchase some 12 BelAZ-7547 and BelAZ-75131 mining trucks under the contract signed with the Irridio Motors leasing company of the BelAZ CJSC.

The agreement has been signed for 4 years with the rate of 4% per annum. The load bearing capacity of 10 purchased BelAZ-7547 trucks is 45 tonnes, while the bearing capacity of two BelAZ-75131 trucks is 140 tonnes.

The vehicles will be used in production of iron ore. Their use will reduce the cost of production at least by 20%.

The state owned Dashkesen Filizsaflashdyrma JSC was also included in the complex.
