Origin of title
According to some data, the pad was named in tsarist times. Then it was planned to start copper mining in the Sayan Mountains , for which the road connecting Winter and Zulumai was laid . However, the road went through the swamps, which caused great difficulties for the expeditions of geologists. According to the legend, a huge cauldron, which was necessary for mining, and which was very expensive for the state treasury, was carried along this road through the swamps. However, because of an oversight and a huge mass of the boiler, he went under the water. The equipment was delivered by Col. Coir, who, fearing the anger and disfavor of Catherine II , shot himself in this place. Since then, they call him Koirova Pad [1] . However, according to residents of the village. Batam earlier in sec. Basalaevka was inhabited by a man named Koyra, who was the owner of this land [2] .
