The removal of the topsoil from a post bauxite mining site and mixing it with the underlying soil considerably reduced the relative proportion of organic carbon. The C concentration in the post bauxite mining soils was 0.7 ± 0.2%; this range included in the level of organic carbon in overburden was found to be 0.35% to 0.85% . C is an important parameter for any soil, as it improves both the physical and chemical properties of the soil and has several favorable effects on soil quality.

Jamaica was known as the world's top producer of bauxite producers globally, with a capacity of up to 5 million tonnes annually (1957-1971). Since then Jamaica has remained in the top 6 producers globally. However, its geology provides an opportunity for ore deposits other than bauxite including copper (Cu), gold (Au), zinc/lead (Zn/Pb ...

25. Mine reclamation is the process of restoring land that has been mined to a natural or economically usable state. After any mining activity landscapes are altered and the ecosystem totally disrupted. Two options in reclamation, • Restoring the pre-mining land use. • Change the land use to another.

Revegetation through natural plant succession has successfully been demonstrated at various mined out/mine spoil sites of Amarkantak Bauxite Project, North Eastern Coalfields (Assam). Reclamation of mined out lands is a recent development in India. A lot of land damaged by mining is still abandoned.

Outcrop - Mining Fundamentals. An outcrop is a bedrock that is exposed, or old superficial deposits on the Earth's surface. In most places outcrops are covered by a mantle of soil and vegetation. However, the rock may crop out, or be exposed, in places where the overlying cover is removed by tectonic uplift or erosion.

The ongoing bauxite mining process involves completely clearing the vegetation and stripping approximately 50 cm of soil for use in rehabilitation. Mining on the Weipa bauxite plateau lowers the landscape on average by 2-3 metres. After the ore body is removed, the stripped soil is re-spread over the mine floor.
