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.
