SUMMARY:

Neo-extractivism is a model of economic development that prioritizes production at the expense of primary-producing areas, subjecting them to a formation of regional space characterized by a production circuit that is not very diversified and geared towards meeting external demands. This process is historically linked to the eastern Paraibano Seridó, which has been connected to consumer markets through the implementation of both material and immaterial circulation networks. However, this dynamic has resulted in economic and territorial expropriation on the part of the mining companies which, as a consequence, has generated a mineral economy that favours the companies more than the local garimpeiro farmers, as observed in the municipality of Frei Martinho-PB, a space that specializes only in mineral extraction. This paper investigates the spatial circuits of pegmatite production in the region, analyzing the territorial and economic implications for socio-productive spaces. The methodology included bibliographical research with key authors, as well as analysis of secondary data on mining provided by ANM, information on jobs from RAIS and socio-economic indicators provided by IBGE. In addition, field research was carried out using a qualitative approach with semi-structured interviews with actors directly involved in mining. The results showed that the predatory model prevailing in mining exacerbates socio-economic inequalities, intensifies informal mining and limits the growth of mining municipalities. In this context, understanding the role of mining,
