The submitted contribution describes the regional extraction of the natural zeolite around Vranov nad Topľou (Košice´ region). Zeolite is mined here for quarries Nižný Hrabovec, Majerovce, Kučín and Pusté Čemerné. The zeolite is mined by private companies and processed into different fractions (according to requirements and application areas of use in the economy). There is a degree of air, soil and ground water pollution around the quarries. In the contribution attention is paid not only to pollution as such but also to the overall state of the landscape load, level of remediation and reclamation. Mining and treatment of extracted material requires certain measures to protect and preserve the surrounding natural environment. Post therefore also refers to the level of pollution and damage to the country and the prospects for its sustainability until 2050.
