Dolomitne
rural settlement in Bakhmut Raion, Donetsk Oblast (province), Ukraine
Dolomitne (Ukrainian: Доломітне; Russian: Доломитное) is a settlement in Bakhmut Raion (district) in Donetsk Oblast of eastern Ukraine, at 54.3 km NNE from the centre of Donetsk city.
History
Before 1950, the settlement that is now Dolomitne was an unnamed worker's settlement near the dolomite mine near the town of Yama (now Siversk). On 27 January 1950, it was officially given the status of a settlement, with the name Dolomitne.
Part of the settlement was taken under control of pro-Russian forces during the War in Donbass, that started in 2014.

Why this record matters
The phrase “rural settlement in Bakhmut Raion, Donetsk Oblast (province), Ukraine” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Place names and jurisdictional language are key evidence: both can reveal earlier catalogue descriptions and overlooked record series. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 20, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q4165090. Authority coordinates are 48.424, 38.140. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1950 and 2014.
Modern boundaries and familiar names can conceal earlier jurisdictions or structures that do not align with the present site. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
