Mining tourism along with geotourism are no longer new and slow-growing types of tourism. Their rapid development in recent decades requires not only better geosites management but also new forms of promotion, marketing and advertising. The ability to provide comprehensive services, extensive and quality information depends on the level of knowledge as well as on the ability to present and use progressive forms of information sharing. The article presents an analysis of the basis and possibilities of different ways of sharing geotouristically oriented information in the conditions of Slovakia. On specific examples of selected mining sites, the possibilities and functionality of the proposed multimedia-oriented guidebook for mining tourism are presented. It is a web-based application designed and continuously filled with information so that it is available at anytime, anywhere and to any one, in the form of an online portal available online. The application combines a wide range of diverse information and data (texts, pictures, photographs, animations, audio, virtual 3D models, etc.) in standardized formats. Based on its functionality, it enables various forms of spatial search and attribute sorting. It provides basic informations on the presence, availability and density of mining tourism attractions (primary and secondary offer of geotourism). The ability to search and filter information is based on the principle of multi-level analysis of datasets, allowing geosites to be filtered by location, by assigning an object to a thematic group, by any text string (by incomplete string too), or by displaying all objects in any of the selected browser windows. The article analyzes the pros and cons of the chosen way of presenting the monuments based on the evaluation of the author's web-map portal after the first years of its existence.
