The safe disposal of highly mineralized runoff in the development of indigenous diamond deposits in Western Yakutia is the most important task of ensuring a favorable geo-ecological situation in the region. Using the example of a large experimental material collected at the industrial site of the Udachninsky mining and processing plant, PJSC ALROSA, the geoecological situation in the area of underground drainage water disposal sites was assessed. Under the conditions of a complex and dynamic cryohydrogeological situation on the background of an increase in the volume of water inflow into the mine workings, the excess of the capacitive capabilities of the reservoirs of the storage tanks of the brine can lead to serious geoecological problems. Markers that identify the effects of highly mineralized water on the main abiotic components of the region's ecosystems – soil, bottom sediments and surface water – are strontium and lithium.

The parameters of the natural geochemical background of ecosystems of the Lunnoye deposit area were studied and the geoecological conditions of large and small watercourses of the Yukhukhta — Yukungra interfluve were assessed according to the state of the total pollution index of bottom sediments. 27 elements of the gross content were determined by the method of emission spectral analysis. The elements that determine the geochemical specificity of the territory were revealed: Bi, Li, Sn, Y, Be, Sc, K, Th, Cs and Ra. At the time of research, the state of the surface watercourses of the territory is assessed as moderately polluted. With further monitoring, special attention should be paid to the state of the river basin Yukhukhta and especially the dynamics of changes in the chemical composition of bottom sediments of the brook. Lunny and Mramorny. The elements K, Th, Cs, Ra, Be, Zn, Pb, As, Cr, and Ni are proposed as parameters for monitoring the geoecological state of bottom sediments.
