Abstract
Anthropogenic lakes that have developed in mined-out pits as a consequence of mineral raw material mining exhibit many interesting phenomena including very specific physical, chemical and biological characteristics of water. In interaction with specific morphometric characteristics a permanent meromixis in some anthropogenic lakes occur.
The author's primary objectives are to present some physical and chemical symptoms of meromixis at selected localities, to discuss the mutual interaction between the physical and chemical characteristics of lake water and to explore some probable causes of the origin of meromixis at the selected localities.
