“…The more intensive this activity is, the more people it employs or transforms the landscape and the more are its remains engraved in people's memories, creating specific environments and communities, and usually starting the process of creating heritage [45]. It is no different in the case of mineral extraction areas, with one of the largest and most important regions in Czechia being the Ore Mountains [46]. More than 800 years of mineral extraction have left a unique complex of remains on the Czech and German side of the mountains, which has been formed, processed, interpreted and protected as a mining heritage for several decades.…”

The article deals with the perception and methods of management of the mining heritage and mining the landscapes from the perspective of individual stakeholders, entities and interest groups. The first part deals with the conceptualization of heritage in general, discussing various ways of defining and looking at heritage; later, the general discussion focuses on a specific group of heritage, which is the mining heritage. The following is an introduction to the area of interest of the Jáchymov region (part of the Ore Mountains, i.e., an area characterized by a long mining history and a number of mining monuments). It is important, mainly, because it is part of the world heritage; the Mining Cultural Landscape of the Krušnohoří/Erzgebirge was added to the UNESCO list in 2019. The second part of the article is devoted to field research in the Jáchymov region. The aim of the research was to find out how the mining heritage in the Jáchymov region is treated, and how and for what purposes it is used. Representatives of the public, private and non-profit sectors from the local, regional and national levels were involved in the research. Research is a comprehensive view of the process of heritage formation and management.

“…Taken as a whole, total mining output of three open pits (i.e. Chervone Ozero-I-III) was no less than 30000 m 3 ; volume of the mined copper ore was almost 817 m 3 . Taking into consideration underground extraction in Chervone Ozero-IV mine, ore output within Kartamysh basin achieved almost 1000 m 3 .…”

Purpose is to identify process engineering of mining under the Late Bronze age (18th-13th centuries BCE) in the context of copper deposits in the Eastern Ukraine. Among other things, it concerns analysis of manufacturing artifacts (i.e. ore production and preparation) in Kartamysh archeological area within the copper-ore territory of Bakhmut basin of Donbas. Methods. Following methods have been applied: a comparative historical method supported by typological archaeological approach; statistical procedures; engineering and geological methods to determine extraction volumes and evaluate copper ore extraction from the mines in Kartamysh archaeological area as well as structural and technologic analysis; functional and typological analysis; traceological analysis; experimental modelling; and carbon dating. Findings. Analysis of the specialized mining artifacts in Kartamysh archaeological area as well as mining artifacts within other copper-ore deposits in Bakhmut basin, extracted actively under the Late Bronze age, has made it possible to consider newly a number of important issues connected with process engineering of mining, specialization and labour division of ancient miners as well as evaluate significance of Donbas copper mines for the system of metal production development in the Eastern Europe of the second millennium BCE. Originality.Analysis of Kartamysh archaeological area, where the majority of business performance objects are connected with mining, has helped the authors consider specialization of the industrial systems (i.e. different-purpose mine workings, various mining tools, and areas to prepare ore) right from the viewpoint of the production method. Since similar situation is typical for other Donets complex artifacts, being involved in scientific terminology as the mining and smelting one, it would be more reasonable to represent it as Donets ore mining system owing to its specialization in the integrated copper ore extraction and preparation. Practical implications.The research results develop the history of mining science and engineering inclusive of ancient mining history in the Eastern Ukraine. They may be applied to train mining experts and in the process of creation of museum exhibitions (looking ahead, creation of Kartamysh skansen) while synthesizing technical and humanitarian aspects of engineering activities.

“…One of the tourist attractions currently being developed in Indonesia is mining heritage. According to Jelen & Kučera (2017), mining heritage can be defined as "a complex of both tangible and intangible features and values whose formation was associated with the development of mining activities in the given region". Mining heritage is the remains of mining activities and mineral resource management processes with values and issues related to the mining industry and workers, making it mining heritage (Jelen, 2018;Jelen & Kučera, 2017).…”

Open Pit Nam Salu tourist area, a Belitung National Geopark that has received recognition as a UNESCO Global Geopark, is one of the mining heritage-based tourist attractions visited by tourists from several countries from all continents of the world. For this reason, this research aims to analyze the role of promotion media in developing sustainable tourism on mining heritage. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative using the Systematic Literature Review method, supported by interview and documentation methods. The study was conducted in Belitung, Bangka Belitung Province, Indonesia. The results show that promotional media is essential in helping the development of sustainable mining heritage tourism. The dominant promotional activities the Open Pit Nam Salu tourist attraction management carries out are advertising and digital/internet marketing. Then, regarding the sustainability of mining heritage tourism, at least three pillars must be met, starting from the environmental, social, and economic pillars.
