Background

Inaglinsky-1 coal mine (Шахта Инаглинская-1) is an underground mine in Republic of Sakha, Russia. 

It is part of the Inaglinskiy Mining Complex (Инаглинский ГОК) which also includes the Inaglinskiy open-pit coal mine and the proposed Inaglinsky-2 coal mine. The Inaglinsky-1 coal mine is operated by GOK Inaglinsky JSC, which is owned by Kolmar.

The underground mine was commissioned in September 2020, together with the washing plant Inaglinskaya-2. Its capacity is 6 million tonnes (Phase 1).[6] The construction of Phase 2 (Inaglinsky-2 coal mine) with capacity of another 6 million tonnes is under way.[6][7] When Phase 2 is commissioned, the Inaglinsky mine will be the largest underground mine in Russia.[6]

Coal from the Inaglinsky mining complex is exported via the VaninoTransUgol coal terminal, which is owned by Kolmar and began operating in 2020.[8] The terminal, together with the mines and the washing plant, completes the creation of the unified production and logistics complex. Coal exports are targeted at the Asian Pacific region, in particular at China and Japan. About 70% of coking coal shipments are to China.[8] Kolmar is also conducting contract negotiations with the largest state-owned and private metallurgical companies in India.[9]

Over January-June 2022, the Inaglinsky Mining Complex (currently consisting of the Inaglisnky-1 coal mine and Inaglinskiy open-pit coal mine), produced 3.4 million tonnes, this is almost double compared to the volumes over the same period in 2021.[10] Overall in 2022, the underground mine achieved 6 million tonne production.[11]
