Cover Story: Though mining provides the global economy with the materials it needs, it is also associated with large-scale land-use change and severe environmental disturbances. Mine reclamation is mandatory to mitigate the negative impact of mining operations. Evaluating the success of reclamation has been largely focused on vegetation growth, but to fully understand the advantages of reclamation, its overall impact on the environment needs to be widely considered. This case study of an Indonesian coal mining site includes a detailed inventory of reclamation tasks, including the energy and materials consumed, the emissions, and the benefits to the ecosystem.
