The work is devoted to problems of environmental impact in mining and chemical industry. The purpose of the work is to evaluate the impact of mining activities on the environment. It is shown that mining activities have resulted in land degradation leading to limited land available for local population, the accumulation of large-tonnage wastes, the presence of contaminants in soil and water, distortion of terrain, activity of various geophysical processes
