So I decided to look into this to see what exactly Russia has plundered from Ukraine.
This is a map of Ukraine's mineral deposits, I don't have the ability to overlay a map of the current front lines; however, I'll post a map of those front lines so you can mentally overlay them.
Keep in mind Russia already controlled a portion of Donets region before this war.
From a mineral wealth standpoint, it doesn't look like they've gained all that much. That big cluster of resources in the east (Green/Yellow/Brown) is not currently under Russian control. It's in the salient that has formed in the east.

It’s hard to imagine Russia is happy with the outcome so far. They have gained very little and appears to have expended a lot for so little.
