| - Punaturjin (form. Krasnotur'insk, Russ. Краснотурьинск) is the second-largest settlement in East Uralica, Uralica, after Serov. It sits on the Turja River, a tributary of a tributary of the Tavda River, and it is named after it. Every useful metal imaginable has been mined here over the course of Uralica's history, although nowadays it is primarily a source of iron, copper, and tin. Aluminum, gold, silver, and even coal has been found in the area, but mining in the area has made it a strain to keep the river clean. Metallurgy in general is a large employer, as is the manufacturing of industrial consumer-goods.
