In Latvia, Devonian and Permian sediments such as dolomite and limestone are widely used for the manufacturing of building materials. Unfortunately, the manufacturing processes used involve excessive emissions of calcium, magnesium and other compounds into the atmosphere, resulting in changes in the species composition of flora and fauna. The impact of the Saulkalne lime processing facilities on the surrounding pine forest is described. Intensive synantrophication and eutrophication occurs in the immediate area.
