Wydobywanie kruszyw żwirowych z łożyska wody płynącej

Abstract

The study shows the problems associated with the mining of gravel aggregates, due to the emerging doubts about the legal qualification of this type of activity at the interface between the Geological and Mining Law and Water Law. It presents an original approach in order to eliminate them, by attempting a clear dividing line when applying each of the acts in the discussed scope, depending on the actual state of affairs we deal with. Presented considerations are going in the direction of determining whether the stones, gravel, sand and other materials extracted in the particular use of water constitute a mineral deposit, and if not, how they should be treated and what are the further legal consequences of this.
