The objective of this work is to analyze the potential of the anthropogenic relief as an unexplored dimension of mining heritage, since it understands that the geomorphological features derived from the mineral extraction process have value for geoconservation actions. A survey and analysis of bibliographical references was carried out to identify the articulation between mining and geoconservation, from a geomorphological approach. Finally, a conjunctural analysis was proposed in the Minas do Camaquã Geosite, in order to understand the anthropogenic forms of relief as mining heritage. Anthropogenic morphologies derived from mining activities should be explored based on their relationship with the techniques used for their spatial organization and the historical period in which they were created and may promote geotourism geared towards mining in geosites occurring in mining areas.Keywords: Mining; Anthropogenic relief; Geoconservation.
