Background

Cheremnova Coal Mine (разрез им. В. И. Черемнова) is a SURFACE mine in Kemerovo Oblast, Russia. The mine is owned and operated by Razrez Cheremnova LLC, which is owned by Yukas Holding Investment Company. Some media articles refer to it as being owned by TalTEK, which could be associated with Yukas Holding. However TalTEK's website did not list this mine, as of October 2022 and October 2023.

The mine was opened in 2010. In 2017, its production reached 1.5 million tonnes.

A new coal mine project Kyrgaisky Promezhutochny Coal Mine was mentioned as a 'continuation of the Kyrgaisky section which is developed by the Cheremnova coal mine'. The article further stated that presently (2020) at Cheremnova coal, the depleting coal deposits are mined, and the resulting empty space will be used as a dump for the planned Kyrgaisky Promezhutochny Coal Mine. Based on this it appeared that the mine's production was not significant.

With no news on the mine since 2020, it appeared that the mine has been closed.
