Soil erosion. Due to the steep slopes in the Lepenec gorge, this part of the project area has significant soil erosion potential.5 However, the lithology under the soils (bedrock) is not suitable for strong or severe erosion processes. There is a slightly higher intensity of erosion rate in the northern part of the project area near the village Blace, while the southern part of the project area in the Skopje Plain, which is very flat, is characterized by very low erosion and dominance of deposition. • Forest fire: Forest fires in the period from 1999 to 2019, destroy an average of about 9,076.51 ha of forest per year. In the project area, the two major forest fires were recorded by the PE National Forests from Skopje in the period between 2015 and 2020; the first one on Stenkovec locality, cadastral municipality (CM) Gluvo-Brazda, where 5.61 ha of Austrian pine young forest was destroyed and the second one in the forest sections 25a, 26a, 27a and 28a of the forest management unit "Skopska Crna Gora" on Blace locality in ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, where ▇▇▇,▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ was destroyed.

Soil erosion. Surface disturbances on the Mulatos Project site resulting from historic mining activities and recent exploration activities contribute to increased soil erosion. These disturbances have or may have an impact on flora, fauna, fisheries, surface, ground water, land productivity for agriculture or ranching use and visual esthetics.
