Background

Severo-Vostochniy Coal Mine (Разрез Северо-Восточный) is a surface mine in the Amur Oblast, Russia.

The mine is owned and operated by Amurugol JSC, a subsidiary of Russian Coal.

It is the oldest coal mine of Russian Coal.

As of 2021, the mine's coal was used domestically, primarily by power plants, and is either collected from the site by the consumer or delivered by rail.

A media resource from December 2024 stated that coal production has been reducing since 2023 due to depleting coal reserves. Coal mining was anticipated until 2028.
