During World War II, an airfield was built right here for the Alaska-Siberian ALSIB air direction used to ferry American Lend-Lease plane to the Eastern Front. Aldan remains a effective gold and mica mining middle, largely warding off the massive drop in population suffered via maximum different cities in the Russian Far East in the years after the dissolution of the Soviet Union. The metropolis stands on the A360 Lena Highway, which connects Yakutsk and Never, as well as on the partly entire Amur–Yakutsk Mainline railway. It is served through the Aldan Airport.
