The territory of Yakutia is characterized by special conditions of environmentally risky nature management, among which the low stability of natural complexes and the ability to restore are of paramount importance. An assessment is made of the degree of resistance to technogenic impact of natural complexes of the territories of the Verkhne-Taluminsky and Syllakhsky deposits located in South Yakutia in the basins of the Aldan and Olekma rivers. The assessment was made by a combination of ranking methods and direct assessment on a cartographic basis. It has been determined that most of the natural complexes of the studied territories are unstable to mechanical technogenic loads. The assessment revealed a differentiated distribution of landscapes with different degrees of stability, depending on the combination of permafrost-lithological and biohydroclimatic factors in each particular landscape.
