    How is the lake described by the minister of trade and development
    of economy Nerses Yeritsyan going to appear after the production of
    minerals in Teghut, which is going to attract tourists to Teghut? The
    president of the Union of Greens Hakob Sanasaryan spoke about
    this problem on November 6 at the National Press Club. "Filtration
    increases, the water balance is broken, water flows into this cavity
    from all parts," Hakob Sanasaryan says. But this water is polluted
    with heavy metals, because as soon as you operate the mine, it starts
    oxidizing. "Mines exist for millions of years, and pose no threat to
    people living there. Even near uranium mines.

    But as soon as you operate them, it starts oxidizing, and when these
    substances become active, they become dangerous. These pollutants
    get into water, polluting underground waters and artesian waters,"
    says the environmentalist.
