Solnechny District

Solnechny District (Russian: Со́лнечный райо́н, romanized: Sólnechnyy rayón) is an administrative[1] and municipal[6] district (raion), one of the seventeen in Khabarovsk Krai, Russia.

The area of the district is 31,085 square kilometers (12,002 sq mi).

[3] Its administrative center is the urban locality (a work settlement) of Solnechny.

[4] The district owes its origins to tin exploration and mining and the subsequent Solnechny Processing Complex[12] which sourced its ore from Solnechnoye, Festivalnoye and Predorozhnoye Tin deposits.

The Sable (Sobolinoye) tin deposit is currently being developed by Zabaikalskaya Gornorudnaya Kompaniya which uses an English trading name of Sable Tin Resources.
