Industrial pollution and old mining methods are one of the sources of harmful agents in the environment. It is important to study and monitor environmental pollution in dynamics. During several years we have been researching heavy metals distribution in soils in the South East part of Georgia. “RMG Gold and Copper” mine in Kazreti is one of the biggest enterprises in Georgia. As a result of open-cast mining aerosols containing heavy metals are ejected which causes harmful effects of the environment.
