Rudarska tradicija v Litiji, segajoča v staro železno dobo, je vključevala intenzivno uporabo lesa v rudnikih, še posebej za podporo in zaščito rovov. Rudnik Sitarjevec je bil znova odprt za turizem leta 2017, in v letu 2021 so odprli glavni rov. Les ostaja ključen material v rudnikih, čeprav so ga v preteklosti nadomeščali z drugimi materiali. Uporabljeni les je izpostavljen razkroju zaradi visoke vlažnosti in gliv, kot je bela hišna goba. Ta gliva lahko povzroči razgradnjo lesa in je pogosta v vlažnih okoljih rudnikov. Obstoj gliv je pomemben, saj lahko vplivajo na obiskovalce rudnika. Visoka relativna zračna vlažnost (96,6 %) in stalna temperatura (10,1 °C) v rudniku ustvarjata razmere, ki so ugodne za rast gliv, vendar pa relativno nizka temperatura ni omejujoč dejavnik za razgradnjo lesa. Koncentracija glivnih spor v rudniku je visoka in je razložena z razširjenostjo gliv v samem rudniku. Poleg tega smo opazili, da je v lesu veliko anorganskih onesnaževal ter veliko kristalov.

• Title: Properties of wood from the Sitarjevec mine

Abstract

The mining tradition in Litija, dating back to the Iron Age, involved the intensive use of wood in the mines, especially for support and protection. The Sitarjevec mine was reopened for tourism in 2017, and the central tunnel was opened in 2021. Wood remains a key material in the mines, although other materials have replaced it in the past. The wood used is subject to decay due to high humidity and fungi such as the mine fungus. This fungus can cause wood decomposition and is common in the humid environments of mines. The presence of fungi is important as it can affect visitors to the mine. The high relative humidity (96.6%) and constant temperature (10.1°C) in the mine create favourable conditions for fungal growth, although the relatively low temperature is not a limiting factor for wood decay. The high concentration of fungal spores in the mine is explained by the presence of fungi in the mine itself. In addition, we have observed that the wood contains a high level of inorganic contaminants and many crystals.
