Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surface-strip coal mine rehabilitation planning in South Africa and Australia is immature. Rehabilitation risk assessment, despite being advocated by leading practice guidelines and in some instances by legislation, is conducted with minimum requirements often met by rehabilitation professionals. Specialist data is gathered during mine approval and for the environmental impact assessment process. However, the focus of this is toward assessing mining impacts and not for rehabilitation risk assessment. Quantitative, integrated, multi-disciplinary rehabilitation risk assessment is seldom undertaken. This thesis provides a methodology towards the development of a quantitative, integrative, multi-disciplinary rehabilitation risk assessment model. Its purpose being to 'profile' surface-strip coal mine sites, in terms of their rehabilitation risk and potential for rehabilitation failure, from the outset of mine operations, with adjustments possible progressively during mine operations. The methodology was developed by first reviewing techniques suitable for the development of the model, as well as techniques developed by others. Bayesian networks (BN) were found to be the most suited. A R2AIN framework was then provided as a process towards developing several BN risk event models that can amalgamate to form a synthesis rehabilitation risk assessment model. A case study soil compaction BN model was used to demonstrate the framework in South Africa and Australia. The case study showed that it is possible to integrate and quantify rehabilitation risk, and most importantly to segregate risk into discrete contributing multidisciplines for analysis. Risk percentages can be calculated per multi-discipline, per mine phase, per site, to aid site risk a̲2́ƠË−profilinga̲2́Ơ4́Ø. It is recommended that further risk event BN models be prioritised for development and that a rehabilitation risk assessment model be developed to synthesise these into one model. This will require continuous improvements in the method, to build confidence, including extensive risk event and synthesis BN model evaluation and testing; improved BN input node states and values; and simplification of the conditional probability table construction method. Adaptation to other mining types, development activities and other regions should be investigated, as well as spatial linkages to geographic information systems. This research contribution improves upfront mine rehabilitation planning and decision making, providing improved tools and techniques than what currently exist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is a discourse analysis examining how issues influencing mine rehabilitation and post-mining landscapes are represented in Australia. Based on a textual analysis of submissions to a Senate Inquiry on mine rehabilitation as well as interviews with mine rehabilitation professionals, I analysed three domains of discourse: problems defined, solutions promoted and facts asserted. Relating these articulations to scholarly debates around mine rehabilitation and environmental management, I show how mine rehabilitation, a process of repairing and restoring disturbed land for future generations, is shaped by conflicting local narratives. Although the discourses brought to the fore multivocal and typically techno-productivist perspectives about how mine rehabilitation should be managed in Australia, I conclude that it is also a social and political endeavour. For rehabilitation to be successful, I encourage mine closure and rehabilitation policy and practice be expanded beyond a purely scientific and resource-based narrative to include engagement between Government, industry, First Nations People, scientists and local communities. This will allow for collaborative and multidisciplinary mine rehabilitation planning and will improve knowledge sharing amongst industry stakeholders and regulators whose actions are at the centre of the challenges facing mine rehabilitation and the successful transition to a post-mining landscape.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This research was aimed at developing a statistically rigorous prognostic success assessment protocol for evaluating ecosystem rehabilitation. The protocol needs to be repeatable, adaptable and simple enough to be easily applied across a diversity of mining operations and sites ... A five class success rating and valuation was developed and the assessment protocol was demonstrated and tested using real mine data, as a case study from the Bowen Basin, Queensland, Australia"--Abstract.
