Background

Kuprinsky coal mine (Купринский Разрез) is a surface mine project in Kemerovo Oblast, Russia.

The Kuprinsky coal mine project was developed by SDS Ugol, but the company developing the mine appears to have gone bankrupt in 2012 while construction was not finished.

As of 2022, it is not mentioned on the company's website or in any other relevant sources so it appears to have been cancelled.
