Background
Novovolynskaya No 9 Coal Mine is an underground coal mine in Volyn Oblast, Ukraine.[7] The mine's initial capacity was 0.45 million tonnes.[8]
In 2015, the Ministry of Energy decided to close the mine.[8] However the mine continued working in 2017 and also reopened in 2018 after a temporary suspension of operations.[8][9]
As per media source dated November 2021, the mine was still working, with plans to mine for another 1.5-2 years.[10] Concrete measures to close the mine were only taken in 2021, according to the same source.[10]In June 2021, the mine was without electricity due to unpaid bills and partial flooding of the mine commenced.[11] An incident occurred at the mine in April 2021 where an elevator with people broke off, nine miners were hospitalized with injuries of varying severity.[12]
As of July 2022 and September 2022, the mine appeared to be still operating, based on several video reports.[13][14]
In February 2023, liquidation of the mine was postponed by a year as the mine still had coal reserves of more than 30 thousand tonnes. However the mine was being prepared for liquidation and a project "Fair transformation of the mine" was developed. 404 people worked at the mine, down from 600 in 2021.[5]
A special permit for the subsoil use of the mine's reserves for 20 years was put up for an on-line auction in November 2023.[6][15]
As of August 2024, the mine was still operating.[16]
