Valuable deposits of sand and gravel in the valleys of carpathian rivers (poland) vs protected areas. Kowalska, A. & Sobczyk, W. Inzynieria Mineralna, 15(1):167 – 174, Polish Mineral Engineering Society, 2014. Cited by: 1
Paper abstract bibtex This paper is a description of the dynamics of sand and gravel mining in the Polish Carpathians. Environmental limitations imposed on sand and gravel mining within Natura 2000 areas and other forms of nature and landscape conservation impede mining activity in those areas. The Natura 2000 network is in conflict with the industry, especially with opencast minEng. Many protected areas have been established within managed and unmanaged deposits of sand and gravel. This may potentially pose the threat of abandoning extraction. In order for mining not to be perceived as an adverse factor, but as an activity which introduces a new quality, former mining sites shouldbe properly reclaimed. Many decommissioned opencast mines undergo reclamation with respect to biodiversity. If mining is performed in an already impoverished natural environment, the established areas may become a habitat for wild species or even form ecological corridorsbetween the priority protected areas. This contributes to increasing the cohesion of the network of Natura 2000 areas. Former mining sites of minerals have favorable habitat conditions for the roe deer, deer. They become nesting grounds for falcons, pheasants, linnets, and night herons. With public consultations and targeted efforts, degraded sites may become habitats for many species of animals, plants and mushrooms. Should reclamation be abandoned, negative changes may take place: erosion, surface mass movements, changes in ecosystems, eutrophisation of waterbodies, etc. Development of natural aggregates extraction is a chance for Poland's economic growth. It must, however, proceed in harmony with the environment.
