Tech/Engineering - Mining & Minerals / Gems
Russian term or phrase: КОО
This is from a list of assets for a mining company.

КОО XXX

I wondered if this was a typo but is unlikely given the location of Z & O?

LTD
Explanation:
I am engaged in Czech - Russian and Czech - English translations. Maybe the following website would be useful for you: www.sokr.ru, you can find there wide range of abreviations. Unfortunately, "КОО" offers three meanings at all. I suppose the most likely is "limited company". But you know the exact context.

LLC or LTD? Very interesting question. You made me hesitate whether LTD means "о.о.о", resp. "к.о.о". See http://encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com/Types of companies... It seems both possibilities are ok depending on preferred English. Maybe someone native UK speaker and native US speaker could help us.
