“Healthy Hrazdan” initiative group demands from Nature Protection Minister to carry out inspection at Hrazdan Mine, where “Fortune Resources” Company is carrying out geological works. The application addressed to Minister Aram Harutyunyan says that “the company has been issued the license for geological prospecting of Hrazdan iron mine by Energy and Natural Reources Ministry in 2012, at the same time conducting the prospecting since 2011, which is unlawful activity.” Then the application lists numerous violations by the company while conducting the prospecting, particularly distance from inhabited houses, which makes up tens of meters unlike 1.5 km laid down in the document. The application also says that the company hasn't performed its obligation to preserve earth surface and didn't ensure carrying out recultivation works.
The initiative demands to annul the license issued to “Fortune Resources” Company, to stop the carried out works and to hold inspection examinations aimed to detect current violations.
