GOMEZ FERNANDEZ, Linda Irene. Structuring mining as a factor of spatial organization of illegal origin areas in town Ciudad Bolivar. Perspectiva Geográfica [online]. 2014, vol.19, n.1, pp.61-82.  Epub June 01, 2024. ISSN 0123-3769.

Mining has historically been one of the major elements in the development and spatial organization of the urban area of the town of Ciudad Bolívar (Bogotá -Colombia). Evidence of this is the spatial distribution of some neighborhoods of illegal origin or informal, close to mining or even in old quarries, setting well, common patterns and the type of housing, roads and even dotacional.

The analysis of the spatial configuration of the site during the years of 1970 to 2010 and its relation to mining and illegal source developments is the object of study. The research method used spatial analysis to characterize the components of the space and the relationships between them, enabling identify some elements that determine urban growth and trends.
