Detection of chemical elements associations in the "сontamination source - technologic flow - deposit environment" chain on the example of Achinsk town agglomeration

The environmental situation in Achinsk is considered. Achinsk Alumina Combine (AAC) is the most powerful source of technologic influence. Chemical elements associations in the AAC main raw material (urtites), soils, covers of snow, surface and underground waters were detected by the factor analysis. It is determined that correlation connections of chemical elements in urtites partially retain in technologic flows and deposit environments.
