Introduction
During early 1970s geologists discovered 600 million tons of big coal deposit in Nuurentein valleys area and by 1978 the government of Mongolia decided to establish Baganuur city in that area as a mining town. Since 1990s the Baganuur is supplying coal as power station fuel to the Ulaanbaatar city power stations which is 80% of total supply. The city elevation is 1,349 m (4,426 ft).
Baganuur is the second biggest mining town has developed into a major center of infrastructure, culture, education, health, communication, commerce and services in Mongolia that is east of Ulaanbaatar. The city has 30,000 residents. Amazing open valleys and forest areas surround the city.
From Ulaanbaatar city drive to the east crossing by Nalaikh town and continue to the east straight and by 130 km at destination. The car ride will take 2-3 hours.
Baganuur coal mine alone supplies 70 percent of the energy coal needs of our country and 60 percent of the central region. In 2022, a total of 16.1 million/m3 of overburden stripped, 27.0 million/m3 of coal exposed, 4.35 million tons of coal was extracted and sold, and an additional 4.5 million tons of coal are planned.

Introduction
Historical Discovery and Development The "Erdenetiin-Ovoo" deposit was initially discovered in 1963 by a collaborative team of Czech and Mongolian geologists, marking the beginning of extensive exploratory work. Soviet geologists later completed a detailed exploration in record time.
Feasibility and Establishment In 1972, a Feasibility Study for the ownership of the copper and molybdenum deposit at "Erdenetiin-Ovoo" was approved. Subsequently, on February 20, 1973, a landmark agreement was inked between the Governments of the People's Republic of Mongolia and the USSR, formalizing the joint exploitation of the deposit.
Formation and Operations The Mongolian-Soviet joint venture "Erdenet" commenced operations following an agreement signed on November 22, 1973, establishing a 50:50 ownership structure. Officially inaugurated on December 14, 1978, the mine heralded a new era in Mongolia’s mining sector, producing its first concentrate in 2000. The development of Erdenet City, with its comprehensive infrastructure, became a quintessential model of large-scale mining projects.
In 2023, the Erdenet Mining Corporation (EMC) processed an unprecedented 37.2 million tons of ore, about 600,000 tons of copper concentrate and more than 5,000 tons of molybdenum concentrate are produced.
Geological and mining attractions:
1. Open pit view
2. The Mining Museum, in the Culture Palace on the central town square
3. The Friendship Monument dating from 1984 is on a hill offering a scenic view of the whole city in the northeastern part of Erdenet.
Local attractions:
1. Erdenet carpet factory
2. Aimag Museum was founded in 1983.
3. A new temple with a large Buddha statue
