Abstract:

Mining plays one of the most significant roles in modern economy, which, on the one hand, provides an opportunity for a region to provide additional jobs, develop infrastructure and, as a result, improve the quality of life. However, on the other hand, it poses a threat to the environment. Research in this area is relevant for the development and implementation of effective air quality management strategies. With their help, it becomes possible to create and implement innovative and environmentally sustainable technologies, reduce environmental impact and take measures to improve air quality in mining fields. This article is devoted to the analysis of pollution sources and climatic conditions of the lead-zinc mine area, assessment of the air quality management system in the study area, as well as the role of ESG principles in the air quality management system of "Shalkiya ZincLtd".
