| Abstract |
Premining planning is emphasizeod and particular attention is given to incorporating mined-land reclamation into the mining method before disturbance. Strip and auger mining methods, as well as equipment, are described and evaluated. New mining methods that will maximize aesthetics and minimize erosion, landslides, deterioration of water quality are discussed. Blasting techniques and vibration damage controls are recommended. Methods of land reclamation including spoil segregation, placement, topsoiling, grading, burying of toxic materials, and revegetation are noted. Technology for the control of erosion and sediment in the mining area is presented. Costs are given for different degrees of reclamation and remedial measures for controlling pollution from surface mines. Water quality change is discussed in detail. Research needs are listed. |
