Background

The Abansky Coal Mine (Абанский разрез) is an operating surface coal mine in Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russia.

The Abansky coal mine is owned and operated by Krasnoyarskkrayugol OJSC, a subsidiary of Russian Coal.

Its capacity is 270,000 tonnes per year. But it appears that the actual production of the mine is much lower, in 9m 2021 the Abakansky coal mine only produced 50,000 tonnes.

The other mine operated by Krasnoyarskkrayugol is Pereyaslovskiy coal mine, which makes up 98% of the company's production.

There was no production data available for 2022 or H1 2023, as of August 2023.
