While people of Hrazdan were struggling to ban the extraction of Hrazdan iron mine, information appeared in the press that only 15 km far away from the city of Hrazdan an enrichment plant of gold extraction and tailings dump would we built and that the plant construction project had gone through expertise long ago.
Hrazdan is famous for its polluted air basin. In Hrazdan the maximum concentration of cement dust STK caused by only the Cement factory emissions can exceed 6-8 times. Besides the Cement factory the Hrazdan TTP functions in Hruzdan, they intend to open the iron mine in the city centre and now the gold extraction plant and tailings dump are initiated. And the plant construction project states that one of the favourable factors of creating the new plant is ''the great ecological potential of the territory''.
The plant is going to recycle the gold containing ore in Lusajur mine. The ore extraction license belongs to '' Paramount gold mining'' Ltd.
100 thousand ore will be recycled per year. The workshops of scrapping and grinding will be placed outside.
According to the project the whole territory of the enrichment plant and tailings dump is 4.6 ha.
‘’The tails belong to not dangerous class, aren’t flammable, explosive and dissolving’’, states the project, consequently the fee is ''0.0 dram''.
Among the pollutants of the atmosphere are dust, sulfur dioxide and carbon monoxide.
The demand for fresh water in the plant will be 63.180 m3.
