Inhulets Iron Ore dressing Works (InGZK) (Russian: InGOK) is a mining and processing plant which produces metallurgical products. The company is based in the Inhulets exclave neighborhood of Inhuletskyi District, Kryvy Rih, Ukraine.[1] Inhulets GZK sources iron ore from the deposits of ferruginous (iron oxide-containing) quartzite at the Inhulets deposit.[2]
