Yuzhny Kuzbass (a subsidiary of Mechel) suspended operations at the Olzherasskaya-Novaya mine, following worsening export opportunities caused by sanctions, falling coal prices, high costs and a shortage of railway infrastructure capacity in the Eastern range.

Coal production in Kuzbass down 6.1% in Jan-Jun 2025

Further pressure on the performance of coal exports was exerted by the abolition of lowering coefficients for thermal coal from June 1, 2022. Moreover, in 2022-2023, railway tariffs jumped by a record 44.6%, and another increase of 13.8% is expected from December 2024. In 1H 2024, Mechel’s loss skyrocketed almost five-fold to 0.17 billion USD compared to 34 mio USD a year earlier.

Yuzhny Kuzbass is a large coal mining company, which includes three underground mines, four open-pit mines, four coal washing plants, and a number of supporting facilities. The design capacity of the Olzherasskaya-Novaya mine, where coking coal was mined, is 1.8 mio t per year, with balance reserves estimated at about 200 mio t.

Year-to-date, total PCI coal sales of Mechel, sanctioned since February 2024, plunged by 25% to 0.8 mio t.

In January-October 2024, Mechel’s output in Kuzbass dropped to 4.7 mio t (-0.6 mio t or -11% y-o-y).
