The theoretical reference for these demonstrations and analysis are the concepts of development and sustainability. Contrasting with the ordinary, the methodology employed here approaches these concepts in an afterward moment to the description of the cycles and local particularities of the development to evaluate the most important facts identified in the studied case in the light of the parameters of sustainable development. Therefore, the construction of the essay was firstly determined by the documental and bibliographical research about the social and economical history of Minas do Camaquã, as well as the examination of the concepts in question. After that, the investigation adopted procedures inspired in the research-action techniques for a fieldwork that aimed at obtaining the opinion of the local people about what was missing so that the developing process happened in a more consistent and lasting manner than it had in the past. After crossing relevant facts and theoretical data, the outcome is the presentation of an example of the importance of the social dimension in the developing processes in small rural communities. Furthermore, it shows how hard and complex the social reorganization analysed under the approach of sustainability related to mining can be.
