Resumo: | Peirópolis is a quarter located in Uberaba County (Minas Gerais State) that has an extraordinary paleontological site of the Late Cretaceous period. This area has many vertebrate fossils, mainly dinosaurs. A great amount of these fossils were found in sandstones of the serra do Veadinho. However, a lower limestone level was economically mining by European's immigrants between 1890 and 1960. In this period, the explotation was accomplished through manual exploration's techniques contributing to the discovery of fossils. Although, in 1987, the mineral explotation was conducted through mechanical techniques, causing environmental impacts and fossil destruction. Therefore, a judicial dispute has started to the use and occupation of the area between the miner activity, local population and geoscientists. Nowadays, the area is for exclusive use of the paleontological research and, in the future, touristic activity. In this context, was analysed a historic review of the use and occupation of serra do Veadinho to examine the compatibility between miner activity and paleontological research. |

A maioria dos fósseis tem sido encontrada em arenitos na serra do Veadinho. Entretanto, abaixo dos arenitos existe uma camada de calcário que foi explorada economicamente pela atividade mineradora de imigrantes europeus entre 1890 e 1960. Nesse período, a mineração realizou-se com técnicas manuais de extração contribuindo com a descoberta dos fósseis. No entanto, no ano de 1987, a mineração passou a ser exercida através de técnicas mecanizadas de extração, gerando impactos ambientais e destruição dos fósseis. Assim, iniciou-se uma disputa judicial pelo uso e ocupação da área entre a mineração, a população local e geocientistas. Atualmente o lugar é de uso exclusivo para pesquisas paleontológicas e futuramente atividades turísticas. Nesse contexto, realizou-se um resgate histórico da disputa pelo uso e ocupação da serra do Veadinho, entre 1987 e 1992, para se analisar a compatibilização entre a mineração e as pesquisas paleontológicas.Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro2010-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/article/view/681110.11137/2010_2_74-86Anuário do Instituto de Geociências; Vol 33, No 2 (2010); 74-86Anuário do Instituto de Geociências; Vol 33, No 2 (2010); 74-861982-39080101-9759reponame:Anuário do Instituto de Geociências (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ)instacron:UFRJporhttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/article/view/6811/5408Copyright (c) 2010 Anuário do Instituto de Geociênciashttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSantos, Wellington Francisco Sá dosCarvalho, Ismar de SouzaFernandes, Antonio Carlos Sequeira2017-01-23T21:51:15Zoai:www.revistas.ufrj.br:article/6811Revistahttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/indexPUBhttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/oaianuario@igeo.ufrj.br||1982-39080101-9759opendoar:2017-01-23T21:51:15Anuário do Instituto de Geociências (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ)false |
