The Department of ecology for the East Kazakhstan region conducted an unscheduled inspection of MLD Mining company LLP in response to complaints from local residents about the pollution of the Kaljir river.
As a result of a trip to the Kurchum district with a check, it turned out that the processing plant is located 2-3 km from the river. The water is used from the sludge collector (closed water cycle), and is not discharged. Department staff and conservation police OP Kurchum conducted a survey of the river Kaldzhir and Ball Kaldir to establish the source of contamination. No objects of activity were found. 5 km from the village of Altai, upstream of the Kaldzhir river, traces of the activities of subsoil users using machinery were found. Reclamation works were carried out (planning of the area). In order to monitor selected samples of waters from rivers Kaldir and Ball Kaldir, the results will be announced.
