Many prospects, quarries, and underground mines (all abandoned) for Early Carboniferous (Viséan) roofing shale.

Zálužné (German: Moradorf) is a village, part of the town Vítkov in the district Opava. It is located about 5.5 km northwest of Vitkov.

Zálužné lies in the cadastral area of ​​Nové Těchanovice with an area of ​​6.56 km².

The Moravice River, which flows through the village, has created a picturesque valley for many centuries, on the sides of which all buildings lie. In addition to a few permanent residents, the village consists of a number of recreational facilities. The character of the Moravian valley was changed by shale mining, but not in a negative sense. Heaps, pits and galleries fit here as part of the landscape and ecosystem and create an inimitable character of the place, typical for the entire slate area of ​​the Low Jeseník and Oderské vrchy.

The ancestors of the American painter Tim Allen of Putney in Vermont once lived and worked in a village whose slate heaps cover a large number of birch trees. The birch trees, of which there are plenty in Vermont, serve as the central motif of Allen's paintings.

There is a chapel in the settlement, as the only building of its kind dedicated to eternal memory to all mining victims of shale mining.
