History
The settlement arose in 1889 due to the discovery of a chromite deposit used in the chemical and ceramic industries. The extraction of chromites started in 1889. Over a century of mining, more than 10 million tonnes of chromite ore were produced.
The settlement has been an urban settlement since June 26, 1940.
