The lake is also rich in flora and fauna and is very suitable for fishing. In this lake there are at least 5 species of wild geese, dozens of species of birds and several species of fish. The grey heron was also spotted on the lake.^[2] Over time, a small island has been created in the lake, which is used by fishermen.^[3][4]

Vasileva Lake was formed by mining activities and excavation of minerals in the area.
