Keywords:
mining rehabilitation, sustainable mining, economic valuation, lateritic deposits, degradation of ecosystemsAbstract
Mining rehabilitation is essential in any sustainable mining project. This study was aimed at evaluating the application of a mining rehabilitation procedure that considers the social, economic, and environmental dimensions in open-pit mining of lateritic weathering crust deposits in Moa. For this purpose results of indicators of the new procedure in 2020 and results prior to the implementation of such procedure were compared. It was obtained that the economic efficiency of mining rehabilitation process was 74.82% in 2019 in contrast to 2020 where the efficiency was 100%; expenses in gullies correction were reduced by 191,913.86 pesos and a saving of 36,000.89 CUC was achieved in the process of intercropping the casuarina tree with other species (guava and cashew)Downloads
