Background
The Sugodinsk-Ogodzhinsky Coal Mine (Огоджинскоe месторождениe) is a surface mine located in Amur Oblast, Russia. The rights to develop the coal field were owned by Ogodzhinskaya Coal Company LLC, which was owned by a company called Rostech.[8] In 2021, Elga Ugol took control of the Ogodzhinskaya Coal Company.[9] In 2022, following the acquisition of Sibanthracite Group, A-Property consolidated the coal assets under the new management company Elga-Sibanthracite (ELSI).[10]
The project to develop the Sugodinsk-Ogodzhinsky coal field was mentioned in Russian 'Programme for Coal Industry Development up to 2035' from June 2020.[11] The target capacity is 20 million tonnes. According to the Programme, the project passed state examination and received a positive conclusion, permission was issued for the construction of a coal mine, and an industrial site and the necessary infrastructure are under construction.[11]
Production commenced at the coal mine in 2020 reaching 200 thousand tonnes, with a plan to reach 10 million tonnes already in 2023.[8] However, significant development of the railway infrastructure would be required to achieve these volumes.[12] In November 2021, A-Property suspended production at the Sugodinsk Ogodzhinsk coal mine to free up transportation capacity for its main producing assets - Elginskiy Coal Mine.[12] The company reported NO production for the the mine in 2022 - it appeared that it continued to be mothballed.[13] However, a later government report from 2023 referred to the mine's production in 2022 at 0.5 million tonnes.[14]
In April 2023 it was reported that construction of the railway has commenced and 72 kilometres out of 140 are to be built by the end of 2023. The railway line will run entirely through the Amur Region.[15] The throughput capacity of the railway line was said to be 7 million tonnes per annum.[15]
In September 2023, it was reported that the mine plans to produce 1.5 million tonnes in 2023 and that currently the mine works to increase monthly production up to 150 thousand tonnes.[16] The mine's status was therefore revised to Operating.
As per government report on the coal industry dated 2023, the target capacity of the mine is 5 Mtpa (down from 12Mt claimed previously) with the target to reach this capacity in 2025.[14] There was no mention of Phase 2 of the expansion beyond 5Mtpa.[14]
