Geoheritage investigation and research in the direction of
protection, conservation, management and reasonable exploitation of
geoheritages for the sustainable socio-economic development is quite a new
field in Vietnam.
This new direction of research has been carried out quite successfully by
Vietnamese geologists who have obtained significant successes. Many geoheritage
sites of prominent values have been inscribed
by UNESCO as world natural heritages and global geoparks. At present, as a
consequence of active mining operations, natural resources and environment are in
danger. Planning of
waste dumps and
mining site rehabilitation after the mine closure is very important and must be
done before starting the mining operation. The practice requires to have the “geoheritage
building" mindset
right in the stage of mine planning. Each mine or mining area must be planned so
that after being mined out it can become a geoheritage site or geoheritage area
which will continue being exploited to serve sustainable socio-economic
development.
This paper introduces the role and actual situation of applying geoheritage research
to the sustainable development planning in our country.
