Platy limestone
as natural heritage

Natural heritage as obstacle to extraction of platy limestone and as platform for future protection

After having analyzed the conflicts of interest between efforts to exploit platy limestone and the demands of preserving natural heritage, the guidelines for future actions and mitigation are proposed as below. The proposals address both existing sites and potential future quarrying sites, as well as the development of geosites.

• Exploitation of platy limestone
• What to do in case of a fossil find?
• How to protect the natural heritage: geosites with platy limestone
