This was announced on Monday at a press conference by the head of the Main Geology Department Ilkhomjon Oymukhammadzoda.

According to the results obtained, the chemical composition of groundwater was recognized as stable.
As part of the program “Search for underground water to provide water for healthcare, education and social protection facilities,” three new wells with a total depth of 220 meters have been drilled across the country.
During the press conference it was also noted that occupational health and safety at enterprises engaged in geological exploration are ensured in full compliance with approved plans and regulations. No accidents or violations of occupational health and safety requirements were recorded during the reporting period.
