This study presents the history of brown coal mining in the southern Slovak brown coal basin according to archive research in the inter-war period. The author has written the mining history on the basis of documents located in the State Mining Archive in Banska Stiavnica, the State Archive in Banska Bystrica and its branch at Velky Krtis and in the Archive of the Dolina mine in Velky Krtis. He has processed the history of these localities where mining of brown coal mining occurred in the analysed period after establishment of particular mining locations according to cadastral territories. The mining is considered as a process by which coal was obtained to be sold commercially or used in the agricultural economy. The author analysed a total of 13 localities.

The study presents the history of excavation - the formation of the mining underground on the southern slopes of the second highest mountain in Ďumbierske Tatry in Slovakia. An extreme combination of landscape features has created a difficult environment for medieval miners, so they had some problems to excavation deeper mines. On the base of terrain mining relicts we identified the first underground mining spaces from the 13th century. The real development of deep mining was started in the 16th century in Ďumbierske Tatry. The excavation of the underground spaces by manual disconnection and deep mining too stagnated in the end of the 18th century. In the studied area we identified (from the Vážna valley on the West, to the Štiavnička valley on the east) 32 mining localities with excavated historic mining underground.

The study represents a probe into the issue of conceptualisation of environmental history in Slovakia based on a research of Slovak and foreign literature. Chronological aspect emphasizes the period of the end of the Middle Ages and the Modern Period. An overview of the process of formation and development of the environmental history is complemented with the characteristics of the discipline from the most significant representatives in the field. The study also deals with the meta-theoretical and theoretical-methodological aspects of the study of the relations between man and the environment in the past.

The study analyses the historical topography given in the text Alchidemia magistri Friderici ae de ferrea porta by Joannes Sobieslavensis from 1573. This unique 123 page historical document is kept in the State Scientific Library in Prešov in the collection coming from the historic Szirmay Library of the Evangelical College. The first part of the manuscript gives alchemistic recipes of the period, but the second provides a detailed description of localities, where it is possible to obtain particular natural raw materials for alchemistic experiments, and their accessibility. The text presents in detail the historic place names in connection with the wider geographical context of the region of the Vysoké Tatry, Belianske Tatry, Liptov, Pieniny, Spiš mountains, Nízke Tatry and Malá Fatra, as well as part of the territory of Poland around Babá and Barná Góra. From the point of view of historical value, it is one of the oldest surviving texts giving exact geographical descriptions of mountain ranges, area names, water courses, lakes and settlements in the territory of Slovakia. The uniqueness of the document lies in the fact that the individual place names are almost all given in their “Slovak” linguistic form.

The study presents the techniques used in the surface and underground extraction of gold in the middle ages and reconstructs the history of precious metal production in the Štiavnička valley in Low Tatras in the historical territory of Brezno up to the end of the 16th century. The first part of the work deals with the history of panning for gold in the Štiavnička valley. On the basis of archive and field research, we succeeded in identifying and reconstructing the gold producing areas, which had an area of more than 100 ha. We analysed the form of the production area. We describe the technical procedures for obtaining the gold-bearing material and the subsequent extraction of the gold. It was precisely the alluvial gold obtained from the Štiavnička valley that made Brezno one of the prospering mining towns of the Kingdom of Hungary in the 14th and 15th centuries. In the second part of the article we analyse the beginnings of underground mining of gold and silver ores in the mines of the Štiavnička valley in the 16th century. On the basis of archive and field research, as well as using published expert works we analysed the techniques for extracting, transporting and processing the precious metal ores in the Štiavnička valley. We also mention specific examples of remains in the present landscape. In connection with the techniques for extracting ore in the late Middle Ages and on the basis of archive documents we worked out the history of extraction of gold and other precious metals in the Štiavnčka valley up to the end of the 16th century. We can regard the period up to the end of the 16th century as the golden age of gold or precious metal mining in the Brezno area. In the 17th and especially in the 18th century, extraction of iron ore came into the foreground in this area.

Water has been the main and affordable source of energy for centuries. In order to be able to use water power in the final technical facilities, water works had to be built for this purpose to ensure that the water was collected in the country. The aim of the present study is the reconstruction of the use of water and the reconstruction of water management systems in the historic mining landscape on the example of water management system of Ľubietová surroundings, whose effectiveness was also determined by the existence of so-called Little Ice Age. So far unknown facts, phenomena and contexts that contributed to formation of the water management system in the mountainous country have also been gained through field research.
