The content of the master’s work is the revitalization of the Solkan quarry. The first mention of activities in this area dates back to ^^^^. The area is home to a mine rich in limestone. For decades, they have been an important source of raw materials for various construction pur- poses. However, with the expansion of the activity, the activity itself and the method of mining the mineral also increased the impact on the wider environment. The activities were strictly regulated and limited in the last decade, in ^^^^, with the collapse of the company Solkanska industrija apna, the activity of burning lime, which was very environmentally burdensome for this area, stopped, only the activity of mining the raw material remained.
The current mining activity has a limited period of operation, in the »Mining Project for the Acquisition of a Concession« the operation is estimated for the next ^^ years. With this aim, periodic revitalization is envisaged, which will replace the current activity in the future. With the transition in the economic field and the inclusion of cultural activities, the aim is to make the area accessible to the general public. It is necessary to ensure that goods are not marketed as raw materials but as semi-products or finished products. As a result, a gallery is planned as part of the Nova gorica_Gorizia European Capital of Culture and the shout that such an event provides is used.
After that, a »plant nursery« is established over a period of two years. In the period of three decades of operation of the nursery, a reduction in excavation and thus a gradual expansion of the intervention is foreseen.
The model of such restructuring offers a sample of the state-building »mundus«, which sums up the past and looks to the future of local significance with national significance. As a result, it becomes one of the key indicators of metabolism for the utilization of abandoned areas, which are increasing every year in Slovenia.
A limited critical mass of people in the field of culture, low attendance at existing cultural institutions - a new, temporary gallery in a timeless structure enables the transition to a new activity nursery. Low-effective activity, injection of knowledge and intellectual abilities-added value higher-lower migration balance.
