INPROFORUM 2007

This contribution is aimed to brownfields as a result of mining activities in rural landscape and it´s next possible use utilization. A typical example of brownfields is area of Štiavnické Vrchy. Many objects (real estates) and buildings stayed without any next use after the end of mining activities. Bigger problem, as it seems, are the objects that raised as a result of that activities. That objects have been used for many decades or centuries, nevertheless they have no utilization on the present. Seriousness of this problem is rising, because individual brownfields have an enviromental impact to the landscape.
