The UNESCO World Heritage Zollverein in Essen (Germany) is an important landmark that creates a sense of identity for the entire region. From here, there are numerous opportunities to explore the legacies of mining and to develop innovative ideas for former mining regions. In November 2023, the 21st “Altbergbaukolloquium” will take place on site for the first time. This time the Research Center of Post-Mining of THGA University is organizing the conference.
The “Altbergbaukolloquium” addresses experts from the fields of geotechnics, mine surveying, mining, geology and civil engineering from authorities, engineering offices, and teaching and research institutions . It offers the right framework for discussing new results, findings and working methods, as well as presenting technical solutions in the areas of exploration, assessment, securing and safekeeping of old mines and other post-mining activities.
We look forward to exchanging ideas with you!
