The aim of the present study was assessing the heavy metal pollution of soils around Agarak copper-molybdenum mine complex and related environmental risks. The study was implemented in 2013. The level of soil contamination by heavy metals was assessed by Contamination factors, Degree of contamination, Pollution load index and Geoaccumulation index. The study revealed that almost in all studied sites Cu, Mo, Pb and Cd were the main polluting heavy metals and this was conditioned by Agarak copper-molybdenum mine complex activity.
