  Abstract:  The paper presents an alternative approach to the relation: “mineral resources – environment protection” vs “economy – sustainable development”. The regional strategies and policies, turned towards sustainable development by valorifying natural resources and especially regenerable mineral resources, may provide considerable income to local communities, without having a negative impact on the environment. Thus, the reevaluation of the mineral water resources having therapeutic effect from Braşov county (Romania), the measures taken for their protection as well as the studies undertaken for their rehabilitation and introduction in the touristic circuit are elements of the county strategies for a sustainable development. The threats of excessive and uncontrolled exploitation of the mineral resources both on the environment and on local communities, are presented also in the paper.
