Bolshevik coal mine (шахта Большевик) is an underground mine in the Kemerovo Oblast, Russia.
Location
The map below shows the exact location of the mine.[1]
Background
The coal mine is owned and operated by Skakhta Bolshevik JSC, which was previously owned by Sibuglemet.[2] The majority shareholder of Sibuglement was the State Development Corporation VEB.[3] In 2022 following the sanctions against many Russian companies, a new company Novaya Gornaya Management Company LLC was formed to replace Sibuglement Holding LLC as the manager of the coal assets.[3] Later in March 2022, VEB ceased to be the the 71% majority shareholder of the Novaya Gornaya Management Company LLC following the management buy-out of the company. Now 4 private individuals each hold 17.6%.[4]
Evraz was planning to acquire the assets of Sibuglemet in 2020, but this deal fell through.[5] Evraz also used to manage Sibuglemet assets from 2015[5], the management services agreement was terminated in November 2020.[6][7]
It appears that the the mine's production has been in decline. In 2016 its production was 1.6 million tonnes[8] while in 2020-2022 it was 0.5-0.6 million tonnes.[9][10] However a news report (Youtube video) from December 2022 referred to the mine's plan to produce 1 million tonnes in 2023, thanks to investments in the new equipment and the planned launch of the new longwall. The mine was referred to as having complex geological conditions.[11] The new longwall was launched in June 2023.[12]
A media source from April 2021 stated that the mine will stop producing in 2025.[13]
