The 50th Anniversary of Mining Production

On December 17, RMG celebrated the 50th anniversary of its mining production at the National Youth Palace, together with its employees and invited guests.

RMG established the Miners’ Professional Day in 2019,  which is celebrated every year on December 17.

At the event, RMG's General Director Joni Shubitidze awarded outstanding miners of 2024-2025. Over the past 6 years, the company has awarded 43 distinguished employees.

This year, the company established the “Distinguished Miner Award” for exceptional contributions to the development of the mining industry. The award was presented to Academician Levan Japaridze.

To mark the 50th anniversary of production, RMG's Corporate Director, Kakhaber Mchedlishvili, presented two company-initiated projects to guests and employees. The first project is related to the revival of the tradition of wearing a miner’s costume, which has been forgotten. Designer Anuka Keburia created a new ceremonial miner's costume, which guests could view in the White Hall at the event. The second large-scale project involves the commencement of work on a monument dedicated to the mining profession, designed by sculptor Valeri Jikia. Through a holographic presentation, he shared the idea and sketch of the monument with the miners and guests at the event.
