The Yubileynaya mine has received new OSTROJ powered support units. The equipment was purchased as part of the investment program aimed at ensuring long and safe life of the Yubileynaya mine.

The units arrived in Novokuznetsk by rail

"OSTROJ is a large manufacturer of mining equipment with over sixty years of experience. We already use a powered support unit of this recognized brand in the working faces of our mine. The installation has proven itself well, so, without thinking twice, when there emerged a necessity, we approached the supplier once again. The heavy-duty equipment has a large bearing capacity and ensures safe coal recovery," said Andrey Mednikov, chief mechanical engineer of the mine.
