Preparation of final slopes in Lubstów open-pit (KWB Konin)

At the beginning of the RAFF Project, some of the previously flooded final pits were chosen for investigations. The main sites selected include Lake Most and Lake Medard in Czechia, Lake South Pestana in Romania and Lake Lubstów in Poland. Maczki Bór open-pit was chosen as an additional research site. A lot of information on crucial factors that affect the stability of slopes during the flooding process was gathered. The collected data concerned, among others, previous and current geomorphology of a site, history of mining activities, materials deposited in dumps, as well as information on climate, geology, hydrology, hydrogeology, geotechnical conditions, monitoring system and remediation activities.
