British Anglo Asian mining company, a gold and copper
producer in Azerbaijan, will appeal to the International Court of
Justice regarding the illegal exploitation by Armenians of
Azerbaijan's Gizilbulagh deposit, Finance Director of the company
Ilham Khalilov told trend .
According to him, this process will be carried out
either by the government or by Anglo Asian Mining itself.
'We will also need to estimate the amount of damage
caused by the Armenian side,' he added.
The Armenian side continues the illegal exploitation
of the Gizilbulagh' gold deposit and the 'Damirli'
copper-molybdenum deposit, located on the territory of Azerbaijan,
where the Russian peacekeepers are temporarily deployed.
Previously, following the negotiations with the
Russian peacekeepers' command on December 3 and 7, 2022, a group of
experts from the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources, the
State Property Service under the Ministry of Economy, and AzerGold
CJSC on December 10, was going to begin the preliminary monitoring
in accordance with the illegal exploitation of mineral deposits, as
well as the emerging environmental and other consequences of this
on the territory of Azerbaijan.
It was planned to inspect the environmental conditions
at the 'Gizilbulagh' gold deposit and the 'Damirli'
copper-molybdenum deposit, monitor various areas, organize
cadastral property records, assess potential risks and threats to
the environment, as well as to underground and surface water
sources.
However, despite the group's arrival, accompanied by
Russian peacekeepers, in the monitoring area, it faced
provocations. The planned initial inspection and monitoring did not
take place due to the fact that the Russian peacekeepers not only
did not create necessary conditions and prevented for the entire
process to carry on.
