city council session. The square panel divided from the staff
bottom corner to the top free corner by a white strip (width in
1/4 of the gonfalon side) on green (from a staff) and red
triangles. On the green part is white old oak with acorns; on the
white strip are three black square facetted jewels.
Artemivs'k was found as Katerynivka village in 1910 nearby to
railway station Kypyche (Vigorous) on the lands covered by oak
groves, near outputs of coal layers on a surface. In 1912 there
were given out the first party of coal - 45 poods (737kg) from a
"Diamond" mine. Since October, 1938, city carries the
modern name. Znak N36, 2005."
