On the morning of June 8th at exactly 8 o'clock, as a Panamanian giant bird ship loaded with imported copper concentrate from Canon Company docked at the No. 2 berth specially designed for Huludao Nonferrous Metals Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Huludao Nonferrous") at Huludao Port, Huludao Nonferrous ushered in a historic moment, marking the official opening of the company's golden waterway for imported mineral transportation. This is a significant shift in the company's business strategy, as the transportation from Huludao Port to Huludao Nonferrous Production Plant is only 6 kilometers, which can be shortened to 5 kilometers after the opening of the east gate. It has significant and far-reaching significance for the company to efficiently meet production and supply needs, reduce operating costs, improve economic efficiency, and enhance competitiveness, further highlighting the company's location advantages.

After tasting the sweetness of the transfer of imported mines from Qinhuangdao Port to Jinzhou Port, Huludao Nonferrous Metals actively promoted the transfer of imported mines from Jinzhou Port to Huludao Port. As early as the eve of the Spring Festival, Yu Hong, shareholder of Huludao Nonferrous Metals and chairman of Hongyue Group, and leaders at all levels of Huludao Nonferrous Metals made every effort to promote and actively coordinate the transfer of imported mines to Huludao Port, based on the company's current production and operation and future long-term development. This work has received full support and assistance from Huludao City, Shenyang Customs, Huludao Customs, Huludao Inspection Bureau, Huludao Maritime Bureau, and Huludao Port, ensuring that the company has smoothly and efficiently completed the relevant procedures and approvals, and obtained the necessary qualifications. Huludao Nonferrous Metals Operation Company and Commercial Transportation Department have conscientiously implemented the company's work deployment on "transferring the company's imported mineral business to Huludao Port", completed the docking of various links of cargo ship entry and the establishment of a complete set of work processes. In particular, the company has obtained advanced certification from the enterprise customs, which enables the company to enjoy lower import and export goods inspection rates and priority in handling import and export goods clearance procedures at Huludao Port, greatly improving customs clearance efficiency and achieving fast and efficient entry of imported minerals into the factory. By transferring to another port, the company's freight cost per ton of ore can be directly reduced by 50 yuan. With the company's production momentum becoming stronger and production capacity continuously increasing, the cumulative benefits are more considerable.

Wang Ruimin, Deputy General Manager of Huludao Nonferrous Operations Company, Han Hui, Minister of Commerce and Transport, and other leaders led the sales staff to carry out customs declaration, tax payment, quarantine inspection, copper mine unloading and other work according to various regulations after the company's first foreign trade cargo ship docked at the port. Liu Yuhua, Vice President of Huludao Port Group, and other leaders and staff actively assisted the company in coordinating and handling the work. Liu Yuhua said that Huludao nonferrous foreign trade cargo ships docked at the port. We served Huludao nonferrous metals just like our own enterprises, and fully supported their development. Enterprises and ports rely on each other, promote each other, and promote each other. Driven by Huludao nonferrous metals, enterprises involved in customs matters in Huludao City will also transfer relevant trade and business to Huludao Port. Hong Kong enterprises will work together to expand the economic aggregate, which will strongly promote the economic development of Huludao City.

After completing the inspection, port call, customs declaration, tax payment, customs clearance, and release processes, the imported copper concentrate from Canon Company loaded on the Giant Bird ship is expected to be transported to the Huludao Nonferrous Plant in the near future.
