Complex assessment of technogenic influence of alluvial tailing dumps of iron ore objects of Eastern Siberia on environment

Using the example of tailing dumps of 'Krasnokamensky rudnik» pic. the authors described the system of complex assessment of alluvial tailing dumps of iron ore objects as potential sources of environmental pollution. The material structure of stale tailing dumps is studied; the groups of the geochemical elements which are capable of influencing the environment in a technogenic aspect are described.
