history

The place was created in the 1930s in connection with gold mining in the area. In 1939 it received urban-type settlement status . The prime of mining was the 1940s to 1950s; thereafter the number of inhabitants also decreased continuously. Maiski remained an urban settlement until 1997. The few residential buildings that still exist today are in the northern to northeastern part of the former location, about 0.5 to 1.5 km from the former center.
