Pressures are exercised on the residents of Fieolotovo village so as
the villagers give their consent to Fieolotovo gold mining project:
an alarm signal has been posted on Facebook social network. By the
way, the mine is located only in a distance of 300 meters from the
houses in the village.
Reminder: Fieoletovo gold mining project is planned to be implemented
by "GradeRedMet" LLC. The project is still undergoing the environmental
expertise stage. The public hearings of this project will be held on
23 December at 23/100 Sundukyan Street, Yerevan.
Under the project, Fioletovo gold mine demonstration is located in
the administrative area of Fioletovo community, Lori Region. The
gold concentration in the mines varies from 2.5-5.5 g/ton. The open
pit will occupy an area of 5.2 ha. The landfill site will be located
in a distance of 1.3 km from the open pit, its capacity is about 3
million cubic meters, total area - around 4 ha.
The mine will be developed for 5 years, it will annually mine 37,000
tons of ore. The ore will be transferred either to Armanis or Ararat
dressing factory. Project affected communities are three ones:
Fioletovo (2.7 km far from the mine), Margahovit (11.1 km far from
the mine) and Lermontovo (7 km far from the mine).
It should be mentioned that the mass media connects the name of "Grade
Redmet" LLC with ex Nature Protection Minister Vardan Ayvazyan, who
currently holds the office of the Chairman of the Standing Committee
on Economic Issues of the National Assembly.
