The mining activity lasted about 600 years. Geologically the area is built up by Sarmatian andesitic-rhyolitic volcanics. The epithermal, low-sulphidation-type mineralization occurs in a potassium-metasomatised subvolcanic andesite. The environmental assessment was focused on the examination of water and soil, mainly in the surroundings of the mining objects. Based on the results it can be stated that the former mining doesn’t mean any hazards for the environment.
