Hazardous sources of pollution have appeared in Akhtala town and
its adjacent areas as a result of uncontrollable industrial dumps of
Akhtala ore dressing combine and default of environmental pollution
prevention. It's Akhtala mine, as the Akhtala River flows through its
galleries collecting a complex of heavy metals. These are numerous
sites of industrial waste accumulation both in Nazik and Nahatak
tailing dumps. Washouts flow into the Akhtala River then getting
spread in the environment. Tails are directly dumped into the Akhtala
River passing by the tailing dump (not to make it full). The river
started resembling a tailing pipe because of the dumps (see the
photo report). Recently Civil Voice organization succeeded to shoot
night dumping from Akhtala ore dressing combine. Watch the video by
Civil Voice.
