Reclamation can be defined as the process of restoring degraded areas to a productive state. The main goal of the process is a desire to restore the chemical and structural state of soils, as well as an aspiration to increase the biodiversity. An important aspect is also striving to ensure the security of

Reclamation is the process to restore the ecological integrity of these disturbed mine land areas. It includes the management of all types of physical, chemical and biological disturbances of soils such as soil pH, fertility, microbial community and various soil nutrient cycles that
the reclamation design process that occurs before mining is initiated or at least long before it is terminated. This process gives the designer more opportunities to mold and shape mine sites into interesting landscapes and to minimize impacts of mining on the environment. The second process involves designing the reclamation program
