IRA TELEINFORM publishes that the tenders for the Sukhoi Log deposit selling will take place in March-April 2004. This became known on December 23, 2004 — this information was provided by Leonid Drachevskiy, the representative of the President in the region.

However, the form of the tenders has not been yet established. There are two variants now: an auction or a close contest. Both propositions have their advantages and disadvantages.
