Udokan Copper was founded to develop the Udokan copper deposit. It is part of USM, a diversified holding. With 26.7 million tonnes of copper reserves, Udokan is the largest deposit in Russia. The copper content, according to the guidelines of the JORC Code, is 0.97%.
The deposit is located in the Kalar District of the Trans-Baikal Region in Russia's Far East, 30 km from the Novaya Chara station on the Baikal–Amur main line. Under the project, a mining and smelting plant is to be commissioned which will produce cathode copper and sulphide concentrate.
