The mine represents a well-organized system of passages and tunnels that root and infiltrate deep into the ground. A system of shapes that can be abstracted and re-proposed on the surface by rooting and superimposing other elements, such as the soil itself, vegetation, and water. This re-proposal is one of the tools in the realization of this project, which aims to restore value to the history of these places and make them accessible through remediation actions of the soil heavily polluted by processing waste. Specifically in the ‘Seddas Moddizzis’ washery, the object of the project, a phenomenon called tailing occurs in which the debris is dragged down by the water of the streams with variable regimes, flowing and accumulating in the wet area of ‘Sa Masa’, where it flows the artificial and natural water system historically used as a waste disposal network from mine production. Through the regularization of the water network in the adjacent ‘Seddas Moddizzis’ area, the project aims to feed and nourish new green areas planted with phytodepurative species located along the entire tailing area, in a temporal system of alternating cycles which have as their ultimate goal the remediation of the entire volume of polluted soil.
