In this article characteristics and indicators of climatic conditions of a North taiga subzone where works on extraction of alluvial diamonds from alluvial deposits of the northern rivers are intensively carried out are considered. Mining works are conducted in the open career way with full transfer of the natural bed of the rivers. It is followed by pollution of the rivers and adjacent territories. For assessment of state of environment monitoring researches with studying of contents and migrations of minerals in a soil cover were conducted. Results of a condition of the chemical composition of soils before technogenic influence are given in work.
