Geochemical characterization of mine overburden strata for strategic overburden-spoil management in an opencast coal mine
Opencast coal mining generates a large amount of mine overburden spoils and creates huge overburden dumps in and around the mining area. It is a big issue as most of the overburden materials (OBMs) are unsuitable for vegetation due to lack of true soil characteristics, and are generally contaminated...
