Mine exploitation means 10-25 blasts a day, with each blast raising 25 tons of dust: ex-governor of Vayots Dzor
Amulsar mine may be objectively exploited only in summer months as in winter there is a lot of snow there, ex-governor of Vayots Dzor region Edgar Ghazaryan told today Nikol Pashinyan in Jermuk.
He said the exploitation of the mine means 10-25 blasts daily with each blast raising 25 tons of dust.
“No matter what expert conclusion they give, it is impossible for such volume of dust not to affect the town. I am not even speaking about transportation of ore and noise. This is not a medieval town but a contemporary one. For it to stay a resort town favorable conditions are necessary. This town has been formed as a resort town,” Ghazaryan said.
