Karaganda or Qaraghandy, the capital of Karaganda Region, is the fourth most populous city in Kazakhstan. Its name is derived from the Kazakh word karagan (караған), a perennial shrub known in English as caragana, Siberian peashrub, or Siberian pea-tree (Caragana arborescens), which is abundant in the area.
Karaganda is an industrial city, built to exploit nearby coal mines.
Findings of agate nodules are reported from various places inside the city and on its outskirts. Well-known places are the area Maykuduk-Zelyonaya Balka with the Maykuduk quarry, the areas to the west of Trudovoye (presently occupied by the Shakhtyorsky microdistrict) and Sokurskoye, the area just to the east of the old airoport (Ruchey Batkha), the area around the old Fyodorvsky coal pit (presently the Fyodorvskoye water reservoir), the area to south-east of Tikhonovka.
