Methodology for ecological reclamation measures : Pilot area Rävlidmyrgruvan (English)
Abstract [en]

The loss of biodiversity is one of today's greatest global challenges. The greatest damage tobiodiversity is caused by changes in land use and the exploitation of natural resources, forexample when a mine is established, or a mining area expands. The mining industry also tendsto cause social injustice to already vulnerable groups in society. To compensate for the damagethat remains in the environment after mining operations are completed, several miningcompanies around the world want to take the implementation of reclamation measures a stepfurther than simply preventing future releases of metal. Through ecological reclamation,extensive measures are implemented with the aim of benefiting biodiversity and social values.The purpose of the study was to create a deeper understanding of what should be included inecological reclamation measures to benefit biodiversity. The pilot area for the study was theclosed mine Rävlidmyrgruvan in Lycksele municipality, Sweden. Using a qualitative study withsemi-structured interviews, the study has concluded that more and more businesses today areinspired and develop work to benefit biodiversity while the technical solutions are many andcomplicated. The study also shows that the area's conditions and some form of prioritizationcan facilitate the delimitation of subject areas and that dialogues are an important aspect toconsider in terms of social sustainability. To follow up the post-treatment measures, variousvariants of inventories were recommended, for example through field measurements andsatellite images.
