Environmentalists protest against Armenia`s plans to build tailing dump
July 01, 2011 | 21:59
YEREVAN. – A tailing dump will be built in the central part of Armenia
near the rivers Hrazdan and Marmarik for wastes of gold-enriching
plant, Ekolur informs.
Existence of tailing dump in the center of Armenia is a real
catastrophe, president of Ecological academy NGO Greta Gabrielyan
states. Although the plant is not yet built the project is already
posted on the website of Armenian Ministry of Environment and Nature
Protection. Tailing dump is among the objects of the future plant.
The specialist believes the main threat is that the project has no
information on the size of the tailing dump. It is mentioned that only
close circulation of water will be employed.
`This means that it can work being overfilled. The tailing dumps are
grounded on the gravel and sand, thus all the content will penetrate
in soil and will poison the lower layers,’ Gabrielyan told and added
there is no second tailing bump in case of emergency.
Another threat is dust from raw processing, which contains heavy
metals. These mixtures are typical for Armenian multi metallic ores
and will pose a real threat for the environment nearby, including
Hrazdan city and Tsaghkadzor resort.

The Karabakh conflict has no other solution but the right for
self-determination, Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan said at joint
press conference with his Ukrainian counterpart Viktor Yanukovich.
`People of Nagorno-Karabakh are bearers of internationally recognized
right to self-determination. This right should be fully implemented,’
he said.
President Sargsyan said that during his talks with Ukrainian
counterpart the sides pointed out key role of the OSCE Minsk Group in
the Karabakh peace process.
Unsuccessful talks in Kazan are not indicative of end of the peace
process on the whole.
`At least one chance was missed. We have lost the chance before the
new meeting,’ he added.
Armenian President stressed that Russian leader Dmitry Medvedev and
OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs reiterated their intention to continue
efforts into the Karabakh conflict settlement, Telegraf.by reports.
`During a phone conversation Russian President Medvedev informed me he
had sent his views of the problem in written form. I think we will
soon receive it to see how to move forward,’ Sargsyan concluded.
