The long post-closure period of a kaolin mine

Abstract: ResumoCom a intenção de se derivarem recomendações, para uma boa prática de fechamento de mina, esse artigo examina o caso de uma mina de caulim, cujas atividades extrativas foram encerradas há mais de dez anos, e que, ainda, não se encontra satisfatoriamente recuperada, segundo os critérios do órgão ambiental.
