Shakhtyorsk - Sakhalin Oblast - Russia (File #35)
Shakhtyorsk is a town in Uglegorsky District of Sakhalin Oblast, Russia, located on the western coast of the Sakhalin Island, 376 kilometers (234 mi) northwest of Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk. Population: 8,382 (2010 Census preliminary results).
It was founded after 1905 as Toro, in the region then known as the Karafuto Prefecture of Japan. After the Soviet Union gained control over the southern part of the Sakhalin Island in August 1945, it became part of Sakhalin Oblast.
It was granted town status and given its present name in 1947. The name derives from the Russian word "miner", referring to the black coal production in the surrounding area (source : Wikipedia).
