Geography
The city of Kirovgrad is the administrative center of the municipal entity Kirovgrad City District of the Gornozavodsky Administrative District located on the Kalat River (another name is Kalatinka, the left tributary of the Neiva River), 73 kilometers north-north-west from Ekaterinburg (97 km along the highway) . On the eastern edge is the terminal railway station Yezhevaya branch (9 kilometers) from the station Shural line Ekaterinburg - Nizhny Tagil [2] .
History
The village of Kalatay (according to folk etymology - from the Türk. Kala-ata “fatherly settlement”) at the site of the future city was founded in 1661 (according to other data in 1663 or 1675). The founding of a settlement in the 17th century is a controversial issue. Documented (report on the results of the audit of the population) confirmed the existence of the village of Kalata in 1808. This year is officially recognized by the City Council as the year the city was founded. In 1812, copper ore was found near the Kalatinka River [3] . In the middle of the XIX century, deposits of loose gold located under a layer of peat were found nearby (in the area of Shigirsky Lake). When opening the peat, Shigirsky idol was found [4] . By the beginning of the 20th century, the Kalatinskoye field was actively developed. For 1912, the Kalatinsky pyrite sulphide mine mined 2,201.0 thousand pounds of ore.
Primary is, most likely, the name of the river Kalata (Kalatinka). A version of its origin from the Russian dialectal kalat is put forward - “bang”, “bang”, calatator - “chatter”. The toponym may indicate a characteristic murmur, "speaking" of the river. [five]
Kalatinsky Copper Smelter
On May 1, 1914, the Kalatinsky copper smelter was commissioned (it was a part of the Joint-stock company of the Upper Iset mining and mechanical plants). In September 1915, the plant was connected by two railway lines: narrow-gauge to Neivo-Rudyanka and broad-gauge from Kalata to Shural station. For 1916, the plant smelted 2,190 tons of blister copper. During the First World War , an underground cell of the Bolsheviks existed in Kalat: on May 1, 1916, 9 participants of the May Day were arrested. In December 1917, the plant was stopped [3] .
The plant was restarted after the end of the active phase of the Urals Civil War . On May 5, 1922, the Kalatinsky plant produced the first refined copper in the Soviet Union [6] . This day was considered the birthday of the Soviet non-ferrous metallurgy. The Kalatinskoye field was developed in the pre-war period, but was exhausted and in 1941 put on dry preservation, and then flooded. In August 1934, GK Ordzhonikidze, Commissar of Heavy Industry of the USSR, visited Kalat. He criticized the orders at the plant and during his visit he was appointed director of the plant A. A. Litvinov [3] .
In 1932, the village of Kalata received city status. In December 1935, the city was renamed “Kirovgrad” in honor of Sergei Mironovich Kirov [3] .
On February 1, 1963, the Council of Workers 'Deputies of the City of Kirovgrad was transferred to the Sverdlovsk Regional Council of Workers' Deputies [7] .
