Effects of vegetation restoration on accumulation and translocation of heavy metals in post-mining areas

Shanshan Xu et al.

Summary: Vegetation restoration is recognized as an effective measure to mitigate soil heavy metal contamination in open-pit mining areas, but the processes of accumulation and translocation of heavy metals in naturally restored soil-plant systems are not well understood. This study investigated the concentration, accumulation, and translocation of heavy metals in different plant tissues and life forms at three natural restoration sites with different post-mining ages. The findings suggest that heavy metal concentrations vary among tissues, with higher concentrations in older sites, and that plant life form and site age play significant roles in the accumulation and translocation of heavy metals.

From exploration to remediation: A microbial perspective for innovation in mining

Alan Levett et al.

Summary: As society transitions to low-carbon, renewable energy resources, the demand for metals and minerals is set to increase. Harnessing microbe-mineral-metal interactions may offer many opportunities to improve some mining practises and support the long-term sustainability of mining. New technologies are needed to improve exploration and mining strategies as easily exploitable, high-grade deposits become increasingly depleted.

Microbial biomass and activity restrict soil function recovery of a post-mining land in eastern Loess Plateau

Meifang Yan et al.

Summary: The study found that planting Quercus liaotungens, Pinus tabuliformis, and Rhus typhina on degraded lands significantly increased soil microbial biomass and enzyme activity, which can be attributed to the carbon sources provided by vegetation, as well as the increase in soil nitrogen content and water-holding capacity.

Analysis of microbial community structure and diversity in surrounding rock soil of different waste dump sites in fushun western opencast mine

Binhui Jiang et al.

Summary: Understanding the correlation between the physicochemical properties of different surrounding rock soil and microbial communities in Fushun western opencast mining is crucial for ecological restoration after mine closure. This study collected soil samples from different areas and explored the effects of soil physicochemical properties on microbial communities. The results showed significant differences in microbial communities influenced by different surrounding rock soils, providing scientific insights for coal mining and microbial-mediated rock mineralization.
