Each geotourist venture should be related to the creation of a tourist product from the geological or post‑mining object. This preparation to tourist traffic through the adaptation or making the object available to visitors is the primary objective which implies the series of different tasks. These tasks of geotourism, in post‑mining objects and sites – the special type of cultural heritage resources, are presented in the paper.Execution of each task was discussed on the basis of different examples of development of post-exploitation sites all over the world, e.g. in Spain, Poland, Germany, England, and Australia. The form and scope of the geotourist tasks execution formed the base for the authors for the assessment of selected development practices, as well as the definition of application guidelines introduced in this paper. All tasks facing geotourism based on former industrial and mining facilities should form a coherent whole, covering the economic (profitability), ecological (neutrality) and socio‑cultural aspect (social justice), and thus fit in the concept of sustainable development in tourism. These pillars should be treated equally, because only their reasonable combination has the chance to result in the creation and development of sustainable tourism.

Mining heritage covers a varied complex of elements or features used for representation and interpretation of values and meanings related to mining. Such a set of tangible and intangible remains from the past has commemorated us the significance of this field for the development of modern human society, and at the same time, when managed properly, it can function as an integrating element that improves the image of a place or strengthens local / regional identity. At the same time its research shows us specific historic or cultural meanings which are also important for modern society.
