Went for a #hike today. Was not expecting much at the top of the route, but found gorgeous rocks, caves and boulders.

"Transformative Changes and Conflicts in the Carpathian Mountains in the Post-Communist Period"

> The #Carpathian #Mountains have experienced substantial changes, with the transition from large-scale natural resource exploitation and processing during the communist era to the closure of most #mines and processing facilities in the post-communist period. This research focuses on a case study from the #ApuseniMountains in the Western Carpathians, which are a well-known site for the exploitation of #subsoil resources, including #gold and #silver deposits, which have been mined there since ancient times.
