Rudniy
(Telephone code: 71431) Some 46km to the southwest of Kostanai, with a population of around 120,000, the town of Rudniy is founded on iron ore. The huge Sarbai deposit here was apparently discovered in 1949. The pilot reported the fact, geologists were sent to Sarbai, and the iron-ore reserves were found. Today the Sokolov-Sarbai Mining Industrial Association (SSGPO) dominates the economy of the town, operating the vast opencast Sokolov and Sarbai pits and the processing facilities for the production of iron ore in both loose and pellet form for steel plants in Kazakhstan, Russia and China. The town, spread out along the main road, Lenin Street, is dominated by Soviet-era apartment blocks, and offers little to detain the tourist.
History
18 February 1949 a pilot of one geological expedition "razvezdochnoy MG Surgutanov", flying over the natural boundary "Sarbaev" drew attention to the strange behavior of the compass. A few months later to the magnetic anomaly profit geologists and geographers. It was opened Sokolovsko iron ore deposits. Discovery and study of deposits is attributed to the geologist VP Nosikov.
In the summer of 1954 the Government decided to begin construction of the plant and the city with it. In May 1955 came the first builders. Managing trust was YM Gimmelmarsh, and chief engineer B. S. Bures. The miners, geologists and builders at first housed in the town of Komsomolsk. Additional tents have been installed, as well as construction of temporary prefabricated panel houses.

The volume of industrial production for the 12 months of 2009 amounted to 145.5 billion tenge, or 76.1% of the facts of the past year, due mainly to declining world prices for steel production. During the reporting period, the volume of production main enterprise of JSC "SSGPO amounted to 128.3 billion tenge.
