Central Europe: Rising to the challenge
Original language description
Despite relatively high prices of raw materials on the global markets, the position of the Czech Republic’s mining industry is a complex one. The financial crisis has curtailed development and plans for several new infrastructure projects have been dramatically scaled back. The country’s Ministry of Industry and Trade has prepared the first draft of a progressive Raw Material Policy, which includes the principles from the European Raw Materials Initiative. For political reasons, this document was not approved by the government until recently. Mining and quarrying both play an important role in the Czech Republic’s economy. The country is self-sufficient in coal, construction minerals and some industrial minerals, such as kaolin, feldspar, clays, bentonite, silica sand, diatomite, limestone and minerals for cement production.
