The paper assesses the correctness of the position expressed in the judgment of the Voivodeship Administrative Court in Gliwice concerning the extraction of sand in order to meet your own needs as well as the legitimacy of the determination of an increased fee if the extracted mineral was not exported or sold. While approving the judgement given by the court, the importance of its interpretation of „mineral extraction" in the practice of administrative proceedings concerning the determination of an increased fee was also stressed. In addition, the consequences of extracting sand and gravel by a natural person from real estate being their object of property (perpetual usufruct) in order to meet their own needs, in violation of the requirements set forth in Article 4 sec. 1 and item 2 of the Act – Geological and Mining Law, were analysed. It was indicated that in the case of extraction violating the requirements given in these provisions, the party conducting extraction activities should expect that the mining supervisory authority will impose an increased fee pursuant to Article 4 sec. 3 of the aforementioned Act. The court stressed that even though the extraction of sand to satisfy your own needs is subject to „light" regimes provided for in the Act, it is still subject to the restrictions contained therein.
