    Cadmium waste sent to unlicensed plant caused soil pollution; subsidiary fined for evading wastewater supervision

    Guangdong Vital Materials handed 44.905 tonnes of cadmium-containing waste residue to a metal refining plant in Hunan that lacked hazardous waste qualifications; equipment failure at the plant caused cadmium-containing dust to leak, and nearby soil cadmium levels seriously exceeded standards, making it Hunan's first environmental pollution criminal incidental civil public interest lawsuit brought by procuratorial organs; in 2024, subsidiary Qingyuan Vital Materials was fined 450,000 yuan for evading supervision in discharging water pollutants. Criminal judgment, fine.
