Malyshev Log (Russian: Малышев Лог) is a rural locality (a selo) and the administrative center of Malyshevo-Logovsky Selsoviet of Volchikhinsky District, Altai Krai, Russia. The population was 1053 as of 2016.[2] It was founded in 1884. There are 8 streets.
The Shushtalepskaya Mine is located near the village, although the name has no relation to the other village of Shushtalep about 6–7 kilometres away. The mine was built in 1948 with labour provided by World War 2 prisoners-of-war. The increased output of the mine and its location, being on the other side of the Kondoma necessitated transport for the workers, thus a tram service was created by reusing unelectrified train tracks. Currently, the mine is mostly not functioning.[3]
