The development of the whole social economy needs to be continuously developed in the mining industry. However, mining of mineral resources will cause serious damage to the mine environment and the surrounding ecosystem, including destruction and pollution of water resources, destruction and occupation of land resources, and air pollution, etc. How to deal with the relationship between economic development and mineral resources and how to reasonably protect the mine ecological environment have become unavoidable problems. Thus, we need to find solutions to protect and remediate the mine environment to maintain ecologically sustainable development.
Under the current severe environmental protection situation, people pay much attention to the mine ecological protection and ecological restoration, and the mine environmental protection has become a hot topic. Problems in mine ecological environment vary from place to place and are very complex, so it is very difficult to solve the goal of mine ecological restoration and comprehensive management. To do this, the Research Topic seeks to compile literature from a wide range of disciplines on understandings, methods, and applications of mine environmental governance in integrated ecosystems, with the ultimate goal of contributing to the achievement of sustainable global development.
This Research Topic will include but is not limited to the following topics:
1. Mine wastewater, gas, solid waste control and management.
2. Environmental mineralogy and geology/mineralogy.
3. Biomineralogy and biogeochemistry.
4. Mine environmental protection and waste utilization.
5. Construction of mine ecological remediation information system.
6. Mine ecological remediation experiences.
7. The environmental impacts of deep-sea mining.
