The Artsvanik tailing dump has a life of two years, as Marat Grigoryan, Dean of the Faculty of Geography and Geology, YSU, stated at the round table organized by “Center for Sustainable Development” at the Faculty of Geography and Geology.
“After two years it will reach its maximum height. Where will these tails be taken? The combine will continue its operation, moreover, it’s increasing its capacities – instead of 15-20 million tons it produces 40 million. You can imagine that the wastes get doubles…What will happen?...We should think of it…Do we have any area?... We don’t have any…” Marat Grigoryan said.
