Talnakh, Mining settlement in Taymyrsky Dolgano-Nenetsky District, Russia

Talnakh stands on the coordinates of 69.5 North and 88.4 East, within the remote northern territories of Siberia near copper and nickel deposits.

The settlement emerged in 1960 as part of the Soviet industrial development program to extract mineral resources in the northern regions of Russia.

The settlement incorporates influences from Dolgan and Nenets populations, who maintain their traditional practices of reindeer herding and fishing throughout the region.

The settlement experiences temperatures below freezing for most of the year, requiring specialized infrastructure and transportation methods for daily operations.

Located above the Arctic Circle, Talnakh residents experience polar nights in winter and midnight sun during summer months.
