Here's a rewritten version of the provided article:
The Krasnoyarsky Krai claimed the 12th spot in the rankings of regions with the highest salaries in the mining sector. "Top spot" in this region became the extraction of precious metals.
According to a study by RIA Novosti, the average salary in the mining sector in the Krasnoyarsky Krai in 2024 was approximately 162 thousand rubles. For comparison, workers in the mining sector in the Khabarovsk Krai (13th place) earned 159 thousand rubles, in Tyva (18th place) - 142 thousand, and in Buryatia (22nd place) - 129 thousand.
Leading in salaries were the Sakhalin Oblast, Moscow, Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, while Kalmykia, Ingushetia, and Chechnya lagged behind at the bottom of the list.
The highest-paying industries overall turned out to be the extraction of mineral resources (especially oil and gas), financial services, IT and telecommunications. On the other hand, regions with low salaries were dominated by public service.
Authors of the ranking note that the labor market in 2024 continued to change and adapt to economic realities.
The shortage of skilled workers increased competition for employees and resulted in a noticeable increase in salaries: nominal wages across the country on average for 2024 increased by 18.3%, reaching 76.5 thousand rubles.
In the structure of the economy, global changes did not occur. Regions rich in natural resources continued to lead in salaries due to the extraction of mineral resources, coastal regions depended on fishing, while in Moscow, finance dominated.

In Russia, salaries vary significantly across different regions and industries due to the country's vast economic disparities. Major cities like Moscow and Saint Petersburg typically offer higher wages compared to other regions, while regions known for their mining and industrial activities—such as Kemerovo and Novokuznetsk—may have comparable salaries to or slightly lower than those in major urban areas, due to their significant industrial presence and economic importance. To accurately compare salaries in the mining sector across these regions, specific data from reliable sources like local government reports or industry surveys would be necessary.
- The highest-paying industries overall were found to be the extraction of mineral resources (especially oil and gas), financial services, IT and telecommunications, as stated in the study.
- In comparison, regions with low salaries were dominated by public service, as the authors of the ranking noted in their report.
