	STRUGGLE AGAINST INDUSTRIAL POLLUTION
		It is clear that mining industry contributes the economic and social development of the region, in the short-run.
		Inactive mining industry, besides causing degradation of the region, is creating a serious problems for the whole ecosystem of the country and the Mediterranean Sea as well.
		In certain of the mines, where the pits are shallow, during heavy rainfall there is flooding with the acid water of the pit overflowing and polluting the sea and water systems nearby.

	PROCEEDING OF THE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON
		The copper mining and refinery operations of the CMC caused the dereliction and degradation of the landscape in Lefke, Gemikonagi.
		CMC, which is acquired by Phelps Dodge Mining Corporation recently, has had a long mining history and extensive investment in conventional mining and smelting facilities in Cyprus.
		The open cast mining and refinery operations resulted in the accumulation of chemical wastes in high concentrations exceeding standards; copper from floatation tanks, cyanur from gold mining, 25-30% sulphur from pyrite tanks resulted in soil, sea and ground water pollution and air pollution in summers, due to the heat, forming sulphur gases and mining dust.

	ABSTRACT
		The social effects of this mining problem on the local community is of paramount importance and is especially assessed; as is the role of regional institutions, and in particular the European Union.
		CMC mine remains in Gemikonagi and Karadag regions of Lefke are of the most serious examples of such cases.
		In accordance with the environmental policy of EU, Cyprus Governments (North and South acting together) and non-government organizations and other civil agencies have a chance to apply to EU institutions within the several funds cleaning up and restoring the environment which was caused environmental damage by the Cyprus Mines.

	North Cyprus: History
		The name ‘Cyprus’ of the third largest island in the Mediterranean after Sardinia and Sicily comes, arguably, from the word ‘copper’ of which there was and possibly still is an abundance on the island.
		The island of Cyprus has had a tumultuous history, its strategic position has made it a vital cross road from the East to the West and has always caused invasions, conquests and strife for her inhabitants.
		The Byzantine rule over Cyprus lasted until 1192, when Richard the Lionheart conquered the island as a revenge for their misbehavior by the rulers of Cyprus towards his fleet which was on its way to the Third Crusade.
