Abstract
On most parts of Federal State Brandenburg battle collisions took place during the Second World War. As the result, a lot of different ammunition from shell-splinters of grenades and mines up to non burst airbombs have remained on battle fields. On the other hand. Brandenburg develops widely coal industry. As is known, there are open mines for brown-coal production in the southern part of Brandenburg. The presence of a huge amount of ammunition's rests converts the development of new coal deposits to very difficult and dangerous business.
