Abstract

The State of Ceará is experiencing a long period of drought, with low rainfall, which means that areas tend to be exhausted more quickly. The Federal Constitution, enacted on October 5, 1988, in relation to the legal system of the mineral sector, emphasizes soil defense, nature conservation and mineral resources, protection of the environment and pollution control. Mining is classified as potentially modifying the environment and this activity is subject to the environmental licensing process and the recovery of degraded areas. The exploration of the altered rock is used in the roadbed and is one of those activities that destroy the environment. The case study was carried out in the country of Itarema, State of Ceará, during the period from January 2015 to February 2017. This work was carried in the degraded area where the altered rock was removed. Was accompanied the maintenance of suppressed vegetation. The return of wild animals that had previously disappeared from the locality was observed, there was an increase in the deposition of organic residues in the soil throughout the period.
