A Joint Initiative to Protect the Environment

Scientists, students, and staff of Korkyt Ata Kyzylorda University visited the Karamurun uranium deposit operated by RU-6 LLP.

The primary purpose of the visit was to conduct research in an industrial setting and explore comprehensive solutions to environmental challenges.

Currently, RU-6 LLP extracts and processes uranium using the method of in-situ leaching at the North Karamurun and South Karamurun mines in the Kyzylorda region. This modern mining technique minimizes environmental impact but requires ongoing scientific monitoring and oversight.

It is worth noting that university scientists and students examined the soil composition and the condition of ecosystems in areas affected by uranium mining. They also explored the potential of phytoremediation – a method of cleaning contaminated land using plants. Additionally, a study was launched to identify plant species adapted to the region’s climatic conditions.

This initiative represents an important step toward the sustainable use of natural resources and the restoration of ecosystems impacted by industrial activity. Science plays a vital role not only in research and discovery but also in the preservation of nature.

Let us treat the environment with care and work together to restore nature through a scientific approach!
