Ukhta (Finn. Uhta) is the most important industrial city in Uralica as it is the centre of Uralica's burgeoning mining trade, even though it is only Uralica's seventeenth-largest city. Surprisingly, it is also the home of the headquarters of the Uralikan Ykköspankki, the main bank of Uralica. The reason this is surprising is that the biggest centres of commerce in Uralica are Kirov and Yekaterinburg. Ukhta is an important rail hub to the northern tundras, and is a major stopover point on Highway UH-1.
