Ambarnaya

The Ambarnaya (lit. 'barn girl') is a river in Siberia which flows in a northerly direction into Lake Pyasino. On leaving Lake Pyasino, the waters emerge as the river Pyasina. It shares a common delta with the river Norilskaya. It is 60 kilometres (37 mi) long, and has a drainage basin of 428 square kilometres (165 sq mi). The river is fed by rain and meltwater. It is shallow and its bed consists of glacial moraine – gravel and pebbles. It is heavily polluted by the mining industry of Norilsk, namely Nornickel, so fishing is no longer possible.

Flows through: Russia.
