We present the articles of the fourth issue of scientific journal "Mining Science and Technology” (Russia) for 2024:

The review article examines 25 copper ore provinces in Russia, encompassing 150 copper deposits of various formations. The primary production is concentrated in copper-nickel and copper-pyrite deposits, while mining is actively developing at copper-porphyry and copper-skarn deposits. The Udokan deposit was commissioned in 2023, significantly increasing the production potential. The largest copper reserves are concentrated in the Norilsk-Kharaelakh, Kodar-Udokan, and Ural provinces. The reserve life is estimated at 47 years, and future development prospects are linked to the exploration of new deposits and the implementation of modern technologies.
