Background
The Chertinskaya-Koksovaya Coal Mine (шахта Чертинская-Коксовая) is an operating underground coal mine in Kemerovo Oblast, Russia. The Chertinskaya-Koksovaya coal mine is an underground coal mine. It is operated and owned by MMK-Ugol LLC, which is a subsidiary of Magnitogorsk Iron and Steel Works.[10] The other mine owned by the company is Kostromovskaya coal mine.
MMK-Ugol also owns the Belovskaya coal washing plant that produces coal concentrate received from the Chertinskaya-Koksovaya and Kostromovskaya coal mine. Most of the coal concentrate is used in MMK's steel production. The two mines cover about 40% of the Group's coking coal needs.[11]
In August 2023 it was reported that the mine was preparing to launch a new seam No 6 with unmanned mining. Glavgosekspertiza issued a positive opinion on the project, which provides for the construction of a mechanised cleaning complex with unmanned coal excavation. Coal production at the new seam is planned for the end of 2025, with the annual coal production as a whole for the mine expected to be from 1.8 to 2.2 million tonnes.[12] Equipment was expected to be delivered from China.[13]
Met coal production in 2023 of the two mines of MMK Ugol fell by 11%. It was therefore estimated that the production of Chertinskaya-Koksovaya fell by the same amount and estimated at 1.5 million tonnes.[14]
Incidents and Regulatory Suspensions
In September 2020, two miners died following a collapse.[15]
In March 2022, the mine temporarily shut down because of hazardous conditions.[16] In August 2025, coal extraction at the Chertinskaya-Koksovaya coal mine was temporarily suspended by the Rostechnadzor. The suspension concerned coal extraction in longwall No. 553bis and was imposed due to violations of industrial safety requirements, including non-compliance with approved ventilation design solutions and the operation of belt conveyors in breach of industrial safety regulations.[17]
In December 2025, additional violations of industrial safety requirements were identified at the Chertinskaya-Koksovaya coal mine during inspections conducted by Rostechnadzor. Operations at the affected section were temporarily suspended as part of a wider enforcement campaign targeting safety violations across coal mines in the region.[18]
