Söyüdlü, Gadabay

Söyüdlü (also, Segyutlyu, Sëyudlyu, Sogyutlu, and Sogyutlyu) is a village and municipality in the Gadabay Rayon of Azerbaijan.

A six million cubic metre tailings pond for the mine, containing arsenic and cyanide, was placed a few hundred metres from Söyüdlü.

Residents of the village have said that the toxic waste is poisoning them and their crops.

Following protests of the planned installation of a second tailings pond in June 2023, the operation of the mine was temporarily suspended.
