英文摘要	Opencast coal mining has a series of consequences on land resources and places enormous pressure on the ecological environment. Stripping, excavation, transportation and dumping have different effects on soil physical, chemical and biological properties. Moreover, the reconstructed landscape produces increased small-scale spatial heterogeneity of mined soils. Currently, growing concerns for the negative consequences of mining have highlighted the importance of reclamation in minesoil studies. This review has examined the mechanisms of coal mining and reclamation that affect soil properties (physical, chemical, biological) and described soil development in reclamation, with an emphasis on the reclaimed minesoil (RMS) properties of reclamation sites. The major conclusions of this review were: (i) The randomness of soil dumping increased the heterogeneity of minesoil properties, which in turn increased the complexity of reclamation practice. (ii) The negative or positive consequences of mining and reclamation processes on RMS need to be recognized by scientific observations such as soil property multi-index analysis and soil chronosequences, on which the minesoil reconstruction practice are based. (iii) Five phases of reclamation (i.e., geomorphic reshaping, soil reconstruction, hydrological stability, vegetation restoration, and landscape rebuilding) should be considered as a comprehensive system for the reconstruction of minesoils. (iv) The application of new technologies (e.g., micro-terrain reshaping and soil non-destructive detection) and new studies (e.g., systematic study, rebuilding animal habitat, and biodiversity research) to minesoil recovery practice would enhance the new concepts of land reclamation and ecological restoration in mining areas. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.
