Operations

ENRC is the world's largest producer of ferrochrome on a chrome content basis. Ferrochrome is one of the input materials for stainless steel. ENRC Group also holds a quarter of the world's reserves of chromium and supplies two-fifths of the world's gallium, a metal used in semiconductors.

ENRC is one of Kazakhstan's largest companies, accounting for about four percent gross domestic product in 2006. The company's main assets are located in Kazakhstan and are predominantly focused on the production of ferro alloys, iron ore and aluminum.

At the time of the flotation, the Kazakh government owned 24.8 percent in ENRC. Kazakh copper company Kazakhmys held an 18.8 percent stake, while the rest was controlled by metals magnates Patokh Chodiev, Alexander Mashkevich and Alijan Ibragimov.
