CRS Engineering participated in the “Community, Mining and Nature 2026” Conference, organized by the IGME-CSIC in Madrid between June 30 and July 1, with the presentation Renaturation of slopes in hard rock exploitations presented by Lisbet González Oliva and Inés Molero Sánchez. During the intervention, the challenges posed by the restoration of these extreme mining environments were presented, where conventional revegetation techniques usually show limited effectiveness. The presentation, based on the results of the research carried out in Canteras de Santullán In collaboration with the IGME and CRS Ingenieria, it focused on the potential of biological weathering (bioweathering), driven by pioneering microbial biofilms, to favor the ecological evolution of slopes within restoration strategies. He highlighted the convenience of developing this line of applied research with the potential to redefine the paradigm of hard rock slope restoration. The participation of CRS Engineering reaffirms its commitment to the development of innovative solutions based on scientific evidence and the transfer of knowledge to advance towards more sustainable mining
