A mine-soil quality index (SQI) has been used for a se-lection of tree species suitable for reclamation (Sinha et al., 2009; Mukhopadhyay et al., 2013). In a reclaimed coal mine spoil, SQI progressively increased with the age of reclama-tion. SQI varied from 0.220 in a 2 year-old reclaimed dump to 0.670 in a 17 year-old reclaimed dump. Mine ...
The physical, chemical, and biological parameters of the soils, and trace metals and PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) in the soils were evaluated. Soil dehydrogenase (+79 %) and fluorescein (+32 %) activities were significantly higher in underground mine (UGM) soil, whereas peroxidase activity (+57 %) was higher in opencast mine (OCM) soil.
