is a series of integrated operations that begins with initial mine planning,
continues through the extraction phase, and does not end until the new, post-
mining land use begins.
      The operations of reclamation depend upon applied scientific disciplines
that make up the environmental sciences. They include soil mechanics for
ground stability, soil science for soil productivity, hydrology and hydrogeology
for surface and ground water flows, agronomy for revegetation, ecology for
baseline studies, and the social sciences for land-use planning. Technical re-
quirements of reclamation will vary depending upon the degree of needed res-
toration and the way, which the reclaimed area will be used in. For example, the
pit may be filled by the waste rock then the removed and stored topsoil is re-
turned back and revegetated, so the area can get recreational use as park and
golf field. Otherwise, the pit may be filled with ground waters forming the
small lake and the area then may be turn into water-based recreational area.
