Direct and indirect seeding has also been extensively used to promote revegetation of denuded Arctic sites. Many of the early studies involved the direct seeding of exotic species which were thought to provide initial vegetation cover to reduce erosion and improve the rate of natural revegetation (Webber and Ives, 1978; Densmore and Holmes, 1987).
Mining Control and Reclamation Act (SMCRA) on 3 Aug. 1977, and where no company or individual has any reclamation responsibility under state or federal laws. Most of this AML area has undergone some natural revegetation with various grass and tree species. Many
high use areas. On steeper sites, sand dunes or windy sites, brush can be pegged with branchlet forks. This is likely to be effective only for small areas. The seed must be ripe, and the ground surface of the revegetation site is suitable as a seedbed (e.g. not compacted or weedy).
Anglesea Mine Revegetation Strategy Technical Study Introduction Alcoa’s Anglesea mine is located at Anglesea, in south western Victoria, approximately 35 kilometres from Geelong. The Anglesea Mine supplied brown coal to the Anglesea Power Station since its inception in
Mining leases and concessions are linked with rehabilitation conditions and the obligation to comply with government regulations. Many operations make rehabilitation the responsibility of individual production staff by including rehabilitation targets in their performance appraisals.
Revegetation Prospects on Ex-illegal Gold Mining Sites In order to understand the species of plants that were relevant for revegetation in the ex-gold mining area, research was conducted by a census of plants in the ex-illegal gold mining area that had a succession.
PHASE III REVEGETATION SUCCESS STANDARDS FOR PASTURE AND PREVIOUSLY MINED AREAS mining. However, if the area is not reclaimed to the requirements of ASCMRC Section 816.116(b)(4), the vegetative cover shall not be 3. at least equal in extent of cover to the natural vegetation of the area; and 4. capable of stabilizing the soil surface from
The general requirements for revegetation, as stated under ASCMRC Section 816.111, shall be considered satisfied upon the determination by the Director that: A. The permittee has established on regraded areas and all other disturbed areas, except water areas, surface areas of roads and areas around buildings that are approved as part of the
Returning Mined Land to Productivity Through Reclamation. 1 Reply. Share this article Reclamation can be roughly defined as the replacement of soil materials—often to approximate original contour—and revegetation of mined areas or areas adjacent to mines that have been affected by mining activities. Returning Mined Land to
Limited areas of post-mined peatlands are recolonized by Sphagnum-dominated communities.This study aims to recognize the spontaneous Sphagnum re-establishment process and to verify if Sphagnum directly colonizes the residual peat. Conditions favoring Sphagnum revegetation are suggested. Analyses of vegetation macrofossils of the newly formed peat allow the identification of colonizing
Subsequently, the reclamation and revegetation of severely disturbed mining areas has attracted increased attention, and measures have been implemented for artificial revegetation in this region, such as the planting of arbors, bushes, and grasses, and natural vegetation recovery.

Placer mining has taken place continuously since 1896 in the Klondike area of the Yukon Territory. Excavation of lower slopes and creek bottoms for mining has resulted in extensive areas of disturbed land. The purpose of this study is to identify and describe the spatial and temporal factors which influence successional trends in the natural revegetation of these areas. The study concentrates
This study aimed to explore some invasive exotic plant species that have the potential to disrupt the growth of revegetation plants in post-coal mining areas. This research was conducted in a revegetation area of PT, Amanah Anugerah Adi Mulia (A3M) Kintap site, South Borneo.
Mining operations can also introduce pests, predators and diseases into natural ecosystems, and can open up isolated areas to further human-induced disturbances. In too many instances, mines have been abandoned in a highly disturbed condition, with limited or no rehabilitation treatment.
Instructions to BLM Mining Compliance Specialists on Implementing Upland Area Revegetation Criteria Overview The BLM Alaska guidance for upland revegetation has established measurable goals that identify when reclaimed placer mines have achieved successful revegetation and wildlife habitat rehabilitation, per IM AK-2017-011.
The exploration of uranium and radium began in Portugal in 1909 and lasted until 2001, when the uranium mines closed. Wastes from mining, ore milling and processing contain radioactive elements, which can be spread to soils, surface and groundwaters around the mining areas. The concentration of radionuclides can locally attain levels toxic to

Université Laval, Sainte-Foy, Québec G1K 7P4, Canada, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract : In North America peat has been harvested for horticultural use since the beginning of the 20th century. Many peatlands are now abandoned after decades of mining, and natural revegetation of peat occurs. To document the revegetation

mining land use in regard to revegetation. The objective for revegetation of ground disturbed by placer exploration or mining, no matter what classification, is to leave the ground in such a way as to provide a good chance for successful revegetation by plant species native to the area (natural revegetation).
Categories: Erosion Control & Revegetation Description: Designed for areas needing quick erosion control. The annual ryegrass germinates quickly, lasting for one year; by then, the clover is mature enough to aid in erosion control until the crownvetch matures.

Mining operations can also introduce pests, predators and diseases into natural ecosystems, and can open up isolated areas to further human-induced disturbances. In too many instances, mines have been abandoned in a highly disturbed condition, with limited or no rehabilitation treatment.
Many North American peatlands previously mined for horticultural peat have been abandoned recently, allowing natural recolonization to occur. The two dominant methods for peat extraction, hand block-cutting and vacuum-mining, have created distinctly different abandoned surfaces, leading to different recolonization patterns.
Density standards for both shrublands and grasslands where cover of shrubs and half-shrubs comprise greater than 20% of total cover must be established based on premine baseline data, technical standards, or data collected from reference areas. Revegetation success with respect to tree/shrub density for each of these land uses requires that 80%

Natural revegetation of bare sub-strate exhibits characteristics of primary succession, so this chronosequence was also used as a proxy to follow P biogeochemistry in the very early stages of pedogenesis.

Open-cast nickel ore mining has resulted in areas of eroded, bare spoil, with soils deficient in N, P and K, and with high amounts of Ni, Cr, Fe and Mg. Details of thirteen revegetation trials initiated between 1973 and 1981 are summarized, carried out on a variety of sites such as old open-cast mines, sterile spoil heaps, or eroded areas of maquis vegetation (not mined, but often burned).
This is a crucial part of the mining process, because without it, we’d have abandoned mining sites scattered across our land. Our employees have vast training and experience in these areas, ensuring the land is safe and useful again. Contact our team for high quality revegetation

Keep in mind that the goal of shoreland restoration isn’t to eliminate access and recreational use, but to provide the benefits of a natural shore, while allowing those uses in carefully defined areas. Shoreline revegetation is most likely to succeed in areas that are sheltered and experience little or moderate wave action, do not experience
