Observations on old Serbian terminology for iron mining and processing: Želězo and gvozdje by Loma Aleksandar B.

“…The word železník in this sense, apparently calqued on Middle High German îsensmit, is attested in Old Czech, wherefrom it appears to have spread to Slovenia (place name Železniki) and perhaps also to the medieval Serbia, where the development of mining can be traced back to the mid-thirteenth century owing to the German settlers (OSerb Sasi, ‘Saxons’); presumably a part of them originated from the Czech lands; at least their first settlement on the Serbian soil, Brskovo, seems to have been named after Brzkov in the mining district around Jihlava (Iglau), on the historical border between Bohemia and Moravia. …”

Análise da atividade neoextrativista da mineração de ouro no estado do Amapá (2000-2020) by Rhuan Muniz Sartore Fernandes, Miguel Patrice Philippe Dhenin

“…Thus, it is observed that the socioenvironmental impacts arising from the neo-extractive activity of minerals favor the deforestation of protected areas and / or indigenous territories, particularly due to the illegal mining that crosses the borders of the state of Amapá (French Guiana and Suriname), the which makes it possible to observe that, despite the legal framework, the neo-extractive mining activity is responsible for favoring a degradation of the Amazonian biome, with the presence of land grabbing, the creation of highways, in addition to affecting the traditional mode.…”
