Miners’ Day is celebrated annually on the last Sunday of August.

Dear friends!

Congratulations on your professional holiday – Miner’s Day.

The history of Russia’s coal industry includes many chapters that the country rightfully prides itself on. Today, you are worthy successors of your predecessors’ traditions, making a significant contribution to the state’s energy security, strengthening its technological and industrial sovereignty, and its export potential.

The government is giving priority attention to the development of the industry. Mining and processing capacities are being expanded, and consistent modernization of mines continues. Digital solutions, innovative equipment, and advanced mining methods are being implemented. The renewal of the technical base and modern monitoring systems have allowed the optimization of production processes, reduction of accident risks, and improvement of miners’ working conditions.

The achievements of the coal sector are backed by the professionalism, dedication, and endurance of hundreds of thousands of specialists who ensure the stable operation of enterprises. Special recognition goes to the veterans. It is to you, people devoted to your work, that the younger generation looks up, learning accumulated experience, mastery, and skills.

I wish you continued success, good health, and all the best.

M. Mishustin
