1 ENPI CBC PROJECTS / MINING ROAD Geological Survey of Finland 1

2 Karelia, Kolarctic and South-East Finland-Russia ENPI CBC Programmes From GTK, Finland and Russian geological institutes six projects with a total budget of where approved This Programme is co-funded by the European Union, the Russian Federation and the Republic of Finland.

3 CliPLivE (Climate Proof Living Environment) The aims of the project are to reduce the exposure to hazards related to geological and environmental risks and to increase sustainable development in the Gulf of Finland region Lead partner: State Company «Mineral» (SC Mineral), St. Petersburg Partners: GTK / Southern Finland Office, Finland/ Helsinki Region Environmental Services Authority (HSY), Finland/ Regional Council of Uusimaa, Finland/ Regional Council of Kymenlaakso, Russia/ The Committee for Nature Use, Environmental Protection and Ecological Safety (CEP), St. Petrsburg, Russia/ A.P. Karpinsky Russian Geological Research Institute (VSEGEI) Total budget Efficient use of natural stone in the Leningrad region and South-East Finland Promotion of the use of local natural stone in building and environmental construction, research on durability of stone in the conditions of city environment Lead partner: Geological Survey of Finland, GTK Partners: Saimaa University of Applied Science (Saimaa UAS), Saint-Petersburg State University, Federal State Unitary Enterprise Petersburg Complex Geological Expedition, Associates (companies): Ylämaa Group Oy, Palin Granit Oy Total budget: Project duration: 34 months

Total budget Hiipinä north rischorr gorge Wiew to Luosto-Pyhätunturi fjell chain

5 ENVIMINE developing environmental and geodynamical safety related to mine closure in the Barents region Lead partner GTK / Northern Finland Office Partners: Luleå university of technology, Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) / Kola Science Centre (KSC) /Mining Institute Total budget Hiipinä tundra Kirovsk mine

6 TOPCONS (Transboundary tool for spatial planning and conservation of the Gulf of Finland) Lead partner: Kotka Maritime Research Association Partners : GTK / Southern Finland Office, Finnish Environment Institute (SYKE), University of Helsinki, Metsähallitus (MH) Finland, Finnish Game and Fisheries Research Institute (RKTL), Interdisciplinary Expert group, St.Petersburg Research center of Russian Academy of science (RAS), Russian State Hydrometeorological University (RSHU), A.P.Karpinsky Russian Geological Research Institute (VSEGEI) Russia St.Petersburg Associates: Committee for nature use, environmental protection and ecological safety of St.Petersburg; Committee of state control of nature use & ecological safety of the government of Leningrad province Total budged: The aim of the project is to produce a marine spatial planning tool for decision making in an international, national and regional level. New knowledge on spatial geological and biological diversity in the area will, for the first time, be combined with societal aspects including legislative requirements and the values of stakeholders. The resulting interactive planning tool will be easy to operate and it can utilise the most current information available as the nature inventory work processes and the level and type of human activities are continuously changing in the Eastern Gulf of Finland. 6 Keijo Nenonen

7 Mining Road Development of a new type of tourist activity scientific and educational tourism based on the monuments of mining and geological profile Lead Partner: Institute of Geology, Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Institutionof the Russia Academy of Science Partners: Geological Survey of Finland, Mining museum of Outokumpu, Administration of the Pryazha national municipal district Karelian Regional State Museum Petroskoi, Ministry of Education of the Republic of Karelia and 11 Associated Partners from the Republic of Karelia and Finland Total budget: Project duration: 36 months

8 Why GTK is involved in nature tourism? The Finnish nature is very important factor in nature tourism We can admire nature sites, but often there is lack of information/ knowledge about the origin of site Tourism is important to municipalitys and nature turism companies New possibilities in information technology The best national and local geological competence Good cooperation possibilities in with other partners eg. universities, surveys, Positive feedback from the audience 8

9 Geology gives to nature tourism Geology is the basis of landscape. Geology gives a experential approach to nature Geology brings with it the concept of time - past and future. Geology is an important key to the natural entities to understand Geology provides a good supplement tourism and educational services. Kuva:Ilkka Laitakari, GTK 9

15 GTK s role and activities in the Mining Road project Geological Survey of Finland Activity 1 /Task 4 Reporting Activity 2 /Task 6 Inventory of historical mining areas (and potential natural geosites) in eastern Finland and Karelia (Preliminary studies and inventory planning. Inventory on the terrain field, photography, proposals for the selection. Market survey) Activity 2 /Task 7 Reporting / describing / popularization geological data. (Reporting, drawing up basic graphics, map production, photo archive, geological frame story (=background material and basic data for seminars, publications and marketing). Making-up historical and geological documentation (source, reference, methodological), working out technical and art task and land use planning. Creating scientific conception of the tourist attraction. ) Activity 6 /Task 30 Seminary 1 Activity 6 /Task 30 Seminary 2 Activity 1 /Task 4 Reporting Activity 3 /Task 10 Tour design: Mining Road (including byroad geosites) Activity 3 /Task 13 Kivisalmi boulder hicking road Activity 3/ Task 14 Mineral exhibition, Outokumpu Activity 4 /Task 20 Web-pages and -publications for dissemination, education and marketing Activity 6 /Task 30 Seminary 3 Activity 1 /Task 4 Reporting Activity 4 /Task 23. Printed materials (Book and/or booklet, geosite information boards etc.) Activity 4 / Task 24. Meeting potential users of tourist services (population) the project. Activity 4 /Task 25. Training of guides and experts at selected geosites Activity 5 /Task 29. European mining area and centers/parks cooperation network (marketing/cooperation outside the programme area) Activity 6 /Task 30 Seminary 4 15

16 Activities in the first six month period Project is going on according the planned schedule. Activity 2 / Task 6 Project work started with preliminary studies and inventory planning. It was continued with collecting and inventing the existing mining historical and also suitable geological data from the project area (North Karelia). The selected mining historical and geo-sites were investigated on field terrain. The sites were documented by notes and photos. The position of the sites were located by GPS and plotted on maps. Also history of the sites were studied by internet web addresses and during the visits. This work is going on 16

17 Activities in the first six month period Activity 2 / Task 7 The data and sites were plotted on maps with ArcMap program and stored in named computer files and folders. Data and photos of the selected sites were stored in digital archives. Slide shows about the mining history, sites, and GTK s task in the project was produced for the presentations in seminars and meetings. Activity 6/ Task 30 GTK Mining Road project staff took part in the kick-off seminar of the project in Outokumpu and in the meetings with representatives of leading partner in Kuopio. 17
