Proposal for the rehabilitation of areas affected by fluorite mining. Case study: Establecimiento Cerros Negros, Córdoba, Argentina

Abstract

Mining is an economic activity related to the exploration and production of minerals, being responsible for important changes in the natural environment. Through it, most of the resources needed for the development of humanity and social welfare of man are obtained. Thus, it is necessary to consider the development of this human activity but evenly, ensuring the protection and preservation of environment. The positive relationship between the extraction of geological resources and environmental protection is
possible, generating environmental rehabilitation and ensuring use start economic landscape and environmental value. The transference of sterile rocks for filling gaps of rocky fronts together with the soil reconstruction, allow a rehabilitation means strictly. The purpose of this work is to contribute to the knowledge of techniques for rehabilitation of debris, in the case of study in a mining of fluorite,
Establecimiento Cerros Negros, with the generation of sustainable artificial soils for the development of an agricultural economic activity.
