Determination of the mineralogical signatures of excavation residues as a task of this work has demonstrated that the mineral phase inventory has changed characteristically since the mixing and deposition of dead sediments. These changes are caused by the oxidation of pyrite due to aeration. In the mixed sediments deposited, a mean pyrite concentra...

In order to forecast the development of waterquality of lakes resulting from opencast mining it is necessary to understand the interactions between lake sediments and the water body. Therefore sediments of an acidic and a neutral mining lake were investigated in a closed lignite mine in Mid-Germany (Goitsche near Leipzig). The small water bodies we...
Neutralization of previously acidic mining lake Goitsche by introducing river water from Mulde river, was scientifically investigated. It became obvious that erosion and elution especially in the zone of surface wave action contributes considerably to the acidity balance. Divided by sills into several subbasins and partitioned by the density strati...

Land reclamation measures involve soil conditioning for the intended purpose (agriculture, forestry, conservation, tourism, recreation etc.) and in accordance with the given initial conditions of the soil. This research project covered the period of 1999-2002, with the following goals: Construction and testing of a small-scale test system for produ...
