Highlights Open cut mining heavily affects landscapes and is a largely irreversible impact. The paper uses an ecosystem services (ES) approach to assess the impacts of mining activities and postmining restoration options. Nine relevant ES were modelled using easy to handle empirical models. The results show clear evidence of the
most visible natural consequences of opencast mining in the environment are largescale excavations remaining after the exploitation of sand, gravel, limestone, lignite, and hard coal, whereas coalmine spoil heaps are elements mainly related to underground mining. This applies to both surface and underground mining [3].

Operational foundations. The opencast mine prepares the ground for recultivation itself. Suitable substrates are cleanly separated from the rock and transported to the back of the opencast mine using conveyors. Spreaders first tip clay, sand and gravel into the excavated areas in order to refill the opencast mine.

Post opencast mining landscapes lose their previous ecological, social and aesthetic values. One of the major concerns after mining stops is the negative impact on water quality due to the acid mine drainage and sediment overload that are exported to the river network (Akcil and Koldas, 2006; Wei et al., 2011; Comín et al., 2009). This has off

Carbon emission sources in opencast mines mainly included fuel and explosive use, coal mine methane escape, coal and gangue spontaneous combustion, and electricity consumption. The carbon emission of the PMA increased from 4 × 10 4 Mg in 1986 to 1.05 × 10 6 Mg in , with an average annual increase of 11.64%.
