The recultivation of the RBB-Bor Cerovo-Cementacija 1 open pit waste dump

摘要

The development of the human society is unbreakably bonded with the development of industrial production. This increases the amount of mineral resources exploitation, thus increasing the area of degraded soil. The consequences of these processes are many and are destructive for the environment, so if nothing was done, the justification of exploitation would be questioned. Looking into the seriousness of the problem, special care is taken to recultivate the degraded soil and rehabilitate its reproductive capabilities. The basic goal of this paper is the proposal of the solution for the establishing of the conditions for long-lasting, viable vegetation covers on the degraded areas of Cerovo-Cementacija 1 open pit waste dump.
