Corum Group, a machine manufacturer and part of DTEK Energy, has produced the RH110 roadheader, the 11th in the line since production began in 2023, the company announced on its Facebook page.
According to the company, the new shearer has over 60 improvements, including hydraulic track chain tensioning to reduce downtime and increase reliability, and improved hydraulic distributors to ensure stable operation in harsh conditions.
In addition, the harvester has 19 pressure sensors for safer and smarter maintenance, and updated software for complete control over energy consumption and resources.
The RH110 is a mid-range combine harvester weighing 55 tons (20% more than previous models) with a 132 kW electric motor, which allows it to work in the hardest rock. The cost of the equipment has not been disclosed.
As reported, machine builders began manufacturing this line of combines in early 2023, and as of the end of 2014, eight had been manufactured, with a total of six combines planned for release in 2025.
Corum Group is a leading manufacturer of mining equipment in Ukraine. It is part of DTEK Energy, an operating company responsible for coal mining and coal-fired power generation within Rinat Akhmetov’s DTEK energy holding.
As reported, in January-April of this year, the company’s machine builders manufactured and repaired 1,136 units of mining equipment, including three new combines. Also, 735,000 spare parts and components were delivered to mines.
The company does not disclose its financial results.
Bitcoin hit a new all-time high on Thursday, with its price surpassing $111,000 for the first time amid a weakening US dollar.
Traders are increasingly optimistic about the prospects for cryptocurrency due to growing institutional demand.
The US Senate voted by a majority to support a revised version of the GENIUS Act. This document provides for federal regulation of stablecoins, which are crypto assets pegged to traditional currencies. It will now be sent for further discussion. The authors of the bill hope that it could be passed as early as this week.
This will provide greater regulatory clarity for companies dealing with digital assets, experts say.
Weak results from the US government bond auction, as well as fears of an increase in the country’s budget deficit, pushed the dollar to a two-week low against the yen. These same reasons caused the US stock market to decline the day before. As a result, investors began to look for alternative investments, turning to cryptocurrencies and gold.
Bitcoin is currently trading at $110,540, which is 1.7% higher than at the close of the previous session. Earlier, the rate reached a record high of $111,878.

Schneider Electric, a global leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, is launching the Environmental Data Program. Building on the legacy of Green Premium labeling, this initiative provides customers with unique access to information about the environmental impact of products, enabling them to make more informed, data-driven decisions and confidently meet new regulatory requirements.
Schneider Electric has been repeatedly recognized as a leader in sustainability, including being named the world’s most sustainable company by Time magazine and Statista in 2024, and ranking first in Corporate Knights’ ranking for the second time in January 2025. This commitment to environmental leadership and growing customer demand for transparency have been the driving forces behind the launch of the new program.
By providing key information such as carbon footprint, energy efficiency, packaging, recycled content, and more, Schneider Electric helps customers choose solutions that meet their sustainability goals and better track, understand, and reduce their own environmental impact.
Schneider Electric now publishes data for 14 environmental characteristics, up from the five previously available under the Green Premium label. This data is available online for 110,000 commercial items. The company plans to expand coverage to 155,000 items by the end of the year, covering 80% of its turnover, compared to the current 70%.
With 2024 officially the hottest year on record, the need for decisive action on the environment and climate has never been clearer. At the same time, research shows that only 7.2% of the global economy is circular. Recent years have been marked by regulatory changes (including the draft EU Directive on environmental claims) that increase transparency and accountability requirements. The data provided under the Environmental Data Program will make it easier for customers to use it for both business and compliance and reporting purposes. Transparency in environmental data is key to both decarbonization and maintaining competitiveness—two strategic goals for the future. Ultimately, it is about enabling better decisions through clearer, more accurate, and more reliable data.
Chris Long, Schneider Electric’s Chief Sustainability Officer, said: “With over 15 years of experience in product environmental data, we have built a legacy of trust and transparency. Now, with the launch of the Environmental Data Program, we are setting a new standard for the availability and effectiveness of such data. We remain committed to helping our customers and partners make responsible, informed decisions with transparency at the core: use better, use longer, use again.”
Celine Coulibray-Duménil, Director of Sustainability at Rexel, a global leader in electrical distribution, supports the Environmental Data Program: “Providing customers with more transparent and factual product information is a necessity. We support Schneider Electric’s commitment to influencing the industry by promoting greater transparency on product environmental performance.”

Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Yevhen Perebyinis accepted copies of credentials from the newly appointed ambassador of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Tolejan Barlybayev.
According to the press service of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, the deputy minister congratulated Tolejan Barlybayev on the start of his third diplomatic term in Ukraine, this time as ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary, and wished him every success in his important mission for the benefit of the two countries and peoples.
Perebyinis thanked Kazakhstan for its support for Ukraine’s territorial integrity. Noting Astana’s commitment to the fundamental principles of international law and the Charter of the United Nations, he stressed the importance of establishing a just and lasting peace in Ukraine.
“The parties discussed ways to intensify bilateral political dialogue and deepen trade, economic, cultural, and humanitarian cooperation between the two countries,” the statement said.
On April 17, 2025, Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev appointed Tolezhan Barlybayev as the new ambassador of the Republic to Ukraine.
He previously worked at the Kazakh embassies in Ukraine, Poland, and the Netherlands. He served as head of the Europe and America Department, headed the secretariat of the Kazakh Foreign Ministry, and worked at the Center for Foreign Policy in the Presidential Administration.
In addition, Barlybayev served as Kazakhstan’s ambassador to Slovakia, Croatia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Previously, Darkhan Kaletaev held the position of ambassador to Ukraine for more than five years.
Ukraine increased imports of tin and tin products to $1.17 million (+32.1%) in January-April 2025. Exports decreased by $55,000 compared to $107,000 a year earlier. In April, imports amounted to $282,000, while exports amounted to $1,000.
Tin is mainly used as a safe, non-toxic, corrosion-resistant coating in its pure form or in alloys with other metals. The main industrial applications of tin are in white tin (tin-plated iron) for the manufacture of food containers, in solders for electronics, in domestic piping, in bearing alloys, and in coatings made of tin and its alloys. The most important alloy of tin is bronze (with copper).
