Question 1
In the KCGO/LA26 systematics for Q1.1, which statement best distinguishes a Ressource (resource) from a Rohstoff (raw material)?
Correct Answer:
A Rohstoff is the naturally occurring material as such; a Ressource is the part of raw-material occurrences that is technically and economically usable for humans
Question 2
What does the term Reserven denote in the systematics of raw materials?
Correct Answer:
The proven share of deposits (Lagerstätten) that can be extracted economically with current technology and prices
Question 3
The LA26 Hinweise name oil-sand mining as an example of Abbau am Rande der Ökumene. Why is the Athabasca oil-sand extraction in Alberta, Canada considered so environmentally problematic?
Correct Answer:
Separating bitumen from sand consumes vast amounts of hot water and energy, causing high CO2 emissions, toxic tailing ponds and large-scale land destruction in a subarctic ecosystem
Question 4
What does Rekultivierung mean as a political measure after raw-material extraction?
Correct Answer:
Restoring and re-profiling a post-mining landscape so it can be used again — for example as farmland, forest or recreation lakes
Question 5
Why does potash (Kalisalz) mining in the Werra region of Hesse/Thuringia serve as a typical Nahraum (near-region) example in Q1.1?
Correct Answer:
It shows how regional extraction of a fertilizer raw material creates jobs but also large overburden heaps and salination of the Werra river
