The Head of the Department:
Assoc. Prof. Vinko Škrlec, PhD

Employees of the Department of Mining and Geotechnics carry out their scientific research work in the exploitation of mineral raw materials, particularly the exploitation of architectural-building and technical-building stone, but also in the fields of industrial explosives and initiating agents, rock mass stability, mineral processing in recycling and waste management, the durability and usability of natural and geosynthetic materials in landfills, measuring in mining, the calibration of equipment for monitoring the harmful effects of blasting on the environment, in the design of automated measuring systems, anti-explosion protection, protection against ionizing radiation, waste management, and specifically, radioactive waste.
In the course of the previous academic year, the Department's employees attended several international conferences, congresses and project meetings in Europe and throughout the world. They published scientific and professional works in domestic and international scientific and professional publications. They encouraged scientific research interests and student development through the mentoring of Final Works and Master's Theses. Since 1991, the Department's employees have been regularly organizing and conducting Engineering Seminars on the explosion protection of devices and installations. The seminar is intended for employees who encounter the possibility of an explosive atmosphere in their work, that is, those who are engaged in the construction, testing, installation and maintenance of equipment intended for work in areas classified as danger zones for the occurrence of an explosive atmosphere.
Since 2016, the Department's employees regularly organize and hold the autumn mining school - Dubrovnik International ESEE Mining School. Members of the Department participate in the Expert panel of the international project International Observatory for Raw Materials (INTRAW), they are members of the managerial committee of the European innovative strategies network for the acquisition of rare and critical metals from EE waste ESSEM COST Action ES1407-ReCreew. The Department was granted four financial grants for research at the University of Zagreb. Employees of the Department are members of the editorial board of the "Central European Journal of Geosciences", and hold a number of positions in the Croatian Academy of Engineering, the Croatian Geotechnical Society, the Croatian Engineering Association, the Croatian Standards Institute and the Society of Mining Professors. The economic areas covered by the Department are the development and revision of mining and geotechnical projects as well as the creation and revision of projects in the field of beneficiation of mineral raw materials; the preparation of environmental impact studies; design and supervision of drilling and mining works in mining and construction (tunnels, construction pit excavation, highway route excavation, underwater blasting); the demolition of buildings by blasting; observation of the impact of blasting on the environment; designing and supervision of mine ventilation, tunnels and underground openings' ventilation; supervision and observation of the quantity and quality of air in tunnels and underground openings; monitoring harmful and dangerous gases at waste disposal sites; measuring the emissions of heating devices; laboratory testing of rocks and soil; analyses of the stability of rock and earth slopes as well as the calculation of support systems of underground openings; and court expert opinions and assessment of the value of mineral raw material deposits and mining works. During the past year, a large number of studies and projects were prepared at the Department, and a number of expert reports were conducted in litigation proceedings.
