The Shargun Coal Mine Modernization Project — also known as the “Modernization of JSC “Shargunkumir” Project or 了沙尔贡煤矿现代化 — seeks to replace the existing technologies and production at Baisun and Shargun coal deposits and bring project capacity to 900 thousand tons of coal per year.

It also involves the modernization of the system of coal transportation.

China Coal Technology & Engineering Group (CCTEG) is the contractor responsible for project implementation and its work is being overseen by Uzbekcoal JSC.

Through its contract with Uzbekcoal JSC, CCTEG is responsible for delivering two mechanized complexes with production capacity of 450,000 tons per year each on a turnkey basis. China Railway Tunnel Group Co., Ltd. is also involved in project implementation.

As of September 12, 2017, China Coal Technology & Engineering Group Corp., and China Railway Tunnel Group Co., Ltd., began the preparatory work for this project. Project implementation officially began on May 23, 2018. The project was expected to reached completion in 2020.

The project implementation had been delayed due to the rise of COVID-19 and flight suspension of various construction workers. The planned project duration was projected to be 38 months. The renovation project is a consortium formed by the China Railway Tunnel and the China Coal and Science Industry.

Du Yaobo, general manager of Nanjing Design Institute delivered a speech before the launching ceremony. From August 10-11, the three machine ground joint commissioning of the project's working face was conducted. On January 11th, 2024, it was reported that the mine had been put into operation.
