Paper short abstract:
The article explores the tailing dump from uranium production that was created back in the 1950-1960th during the USSR era. It is located on a mountainside near the Mailuu-Suu River, Kyrgyzstan at a distance of about 100 m from the riverbed.
Paper long abstract:
The article explores the tailing dump from uranium production that was created back in the 1950-1960th during the USSR era. It is located on a mountainside near the Mailuu-Suu River, Kyrgyzstan at a distance of about 100 m from the riverbed. It was closed by a meter-thick rock. The disposal capacity was approximately 100000 m3 with a uranium content of 1000 m3/kg.
Over time, a constant source of water appeared in the body of the burial at a height of 2/3 from the base, which washes the tails. Uranium contained in the burial, along with water, falls into the riverbed by seepage. This area is densely populated, and the study is needed to explore risks to the health of the population because they use the river water for household.
The purpose of the study is to determine the quantitative indicator of the flow of dissolved uranium, which, together with groundwater falls into the riverbed. Calculation of water filtration in the rock mass along with polluting uranium dissolved in this water was performed using the HYDRUS-ID program.
