This research aims to analyze the influence of mining activity on the formation of urban space of the city of Itaituba/PA, which has a strategic location on the wealthy Tapajós Gold Province. It is considered that the mining activity in this region is specific and structured differently than traditional extraction (latex) from installation manual mines to the insertion of large machines, which currently occurs in the mines. Part of the hypothesis is that the oscillations of this activity intertwined with government interventionist actions dictated the pace of urban dynamics Itaituba. It begins with a comprehensive analysis of the process of urbanization of the Amazon, involving the exploitation of natural resources, particularly minerals and exploitation of gold. Then we develop a periodization of gold mining in the Tapajos Gold Province, from the 60s, establishing the main periods and sub-periods that influenced in some way in the urban dynamics of the city. Then we developed an overview of spatial and urban consequent repercussions mining activity in Itaituba. The research also considered the urban processes that are focusing on the city from the perspective of implementation of large energy and logistics (port) projects in the region.

Neodesenvolvimentismo, restruturação urbana e cidades médias na Amazônia: o exemplo de Itaituba na sub-região do Tapajós
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-10-04) SCHUBER, Eliana Souza Machado; TRINDADE JÚNIOR, Saint-Clair Cordeiro da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1762041788112837
Considering the modernization of the territory imposed by neo-developmentalist politics, this thesis aims to analyze the role that the intermediate cities assumed in the consequent process of urban restructuring that took place in the Amazon region, taking as an example the case of Itaituba, in the Tapajós sub-region. In the light of historical and dialectical materialism as a method of interpretation and analysis, the following methodological procedures are carried out: i) bibliographical review of theoretical and conceptual nature of theories, concepts, categories and notions relevant to the theme in question; ii) bibliographical review of historical-geographical nature related to the territorial formation of the Tapajós sub-region; iii) documentary survey of secondary data referring to the Tapajós sub-region, especially the city of Itaituba; iv) semi-structured interviews with representatives of the municipal government and local social entities, as well as residents living and/or working in the city of Itaituba; v) participant observation; and vi) analysis and systematization of the data collected in the light of the previously defined and revised theoretical framework. Thus, after the implementation of this policy and all the technical systems that resulted from it in the Tapajós sub-region, the city under study experienced an increase in its urban centrality as well profound socio-spatial transformations in its urban environment, evidenced by the reactivation of migration, the growth of the real estate market and the construction industry, the diffusion of new consumption and leisure practices, the contrasts revealed in the intraurban structure and the consequent worsening of inequalities; this fact allows us to conclude that, due to the processes triggered by neo-developmentalist policies, Itaituba asserts itself as an average city in the regional context in which it operates.
