Deposits: Talnakhskoye and Oktyabrskoye
Minerals: copper‑nickel sulphide ores.
Location: Krasnoyarsk Territory, Norilsk. Geologically, the deposits are part of the Talnakh Ore Cluster.
The Company has been developing the Talnakhskoye and Oktyabrskoye deposits since the early 1960s, when multiple deposits of high‑grade, cuprous, and disseminated ores were discovered within the area. Nornickel is still well supplied with non‑ferrous and noble metals from the uniquely rich and vast resource base of the Talnakh Ore Cluster deposits.
Deposit: Norilsk‑1
Minerals: copper‑nickel sulphide ores.
Location: Krasnoyarsk Territory, Norilsk. Geologically, the deposit is part of the Norilsk Ore Cluster.
The Company has been developing Norilsk‑1 since the 1930s, currently mining disseminated ores from the deposit’s northern portion. In 2020, the resource estimate for the deposit was updated against new permanent exploratory standards for open‑pit and underground mining.
Deposits: Kotselvaara, Semiletka, Zhdanovskoye, Zapolyarnoye, Bystrinskoye, Tundrovoye, Sputnik, and Verkhneye
Minerals: copper‑nickel sulphide ores.
Location: Murmansk Region, Pechengsky District.
The deposits are located within a 25 km stretch between Nikel and Zapolyarny and grouped into two ore clusters: Western (Kotselvaara and Semiletka deposits) and Eastern (Zhdanovskoye, Zapolyarnoye, Bystrinskoye, Tundrovoye, Sputnik, and Verkhneye deposits). The deposits in the Western and Eastern clusters have been developed since the 1930s and 1960s, respectively.
Deposit: Bystrinskoye
Minerals: gold‑iron‑copper ores.
Location: Zabaykalsky Territory, Gazimuro‑Zavodsky Municipal District.
Developed since 2017, the Bystrinskoye deposit currently comprises two open‑pit mines, Verkhne‑Ildikansky and Bystrinsky‑2, with two more – Medny Chainik and Yuzhno‑Rodstvenny – scheduled to come online in 2030.
