Early mining activity was a carried out in a primitive manner and only relatively high grade mineralization was worked. Many developments have taken place since then up to the present day. In addition, the range of commodities mined has greatly expanded over this time period and include ornamental stone, industrial minerals, fuel minerals as well as metal mines. Several of these sites have had over 1,000 years of continuous mining activity while others measure their life in decades or less. The mining activity has altered the landscape and many mining regions have a unique environment and built heritage. This Task aims to document those mining areas which have developed tourist attractions or amenities following the closure of the mines, in partner countries. Information has be collected which will provide a brief overview of the mine – commodities worked, period of operation, type of mining, mining activities that were carried out at the site, the current condition of the site including any remediation, built heritage, current attractions at the site (preserved built heritage, interpretative centre, walks, etc.) and the management of the site.
