Background
The Dobropilska Coal Mine is an underground coal mine in Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine.
The Dobropilska coal mine is an underground coal mine. The mine used to be part of DTEK Dobropolyeugol, a subsidiary of DTEK Energy.[4] In 2020 DTEK decided to interrupt the lease agreement and in early 2021 returned the company to the state.[5] Subsequently the mine transitioned under the ownership of State enterprise Dobropillyavugillya-vydobutok.[6]
The Dobropilska coal mine has a capacity of 1 million tons per year.[7][8][9]
DTEK Dobropolyeugol included 5 mines: Dobropilska, Almaznaya Coal Mine, Belitskaya Coal Mine, Novodonetskaya Coal Mine and Pioner Coal mine.[5] In 2017, DTEK Dobropolyeugol jointly produced 2.128 Mt of coal.[10] In 2020, this was 2.343 Mt[11], of which Dobropilska contributed 1.1 million tonnes.[12]
According to the Institute for War and Peace Reporting, most Donbas region mines were seized by Russians and pro-Russian rebels in late 2014 and many have endured electricity shortages and flooding ever since. The output of the Donbas mines is no longer transparent, and many are likely non-operational and on hiatus.[13]
The mine was assumed mothballed, however as per 2023 sources it appeared that it was operational. The company's undated website referred to the mine as operational.[6][14] In October 2023, Dobropillyavugillya-vydobutok reported that the company completed the annual mining plan ahead of schedule, producing 0.64 million tonnes of coal.[15] This is joint production of 3 mines of the company that appear to be operating - Dobropilska, Novodonetskaya, and Almaznaya Coal Mine.
