Abstract | The project sought to determine the immediate effects of coal and bitumen mining on a variety of soil microbiological factors; andto provide detailed information on the rates of redevelopment ofbiological activity when various organic and inorganic amendmentsare applied singly to vaious minespoils and subsequently plantedwith different herbaceous and woody plant species. |
