    [ 17 Mar 2007 12:37 ]

    Armenia's Akhtala Mining Combine discharged heavy and harmful
    effluents to the Debet and the Khram onward to the Kur after the
    accident.

    Azerbaijan's ecological labs have been put on the alert in the
    regions of Kazakh and Beilagan during March 6-16 to analyze the river
    water and the chemicals let into the water.
    Ecology and Natural Resources Ministry told APA that the examination
    of the samples taken from the Khram, Kur, Tovuzchay, Aghstafachay
    Rivers and Aghstafa Water Reservoir showed that the water contains
    copper ions 6.2 times above the average, zinc substances are 1.2
    times above the norm in the water of Khram River and 1.3 times more
    than the norm in the Kur River, 1.2 times more in Tovuzchay and 1.1
    times in Aghstafachay. /APA /
