Abstract:Concept, methods, characteristics and influential factors of artificial rebuilding of mining engineering disturbed soil with the connotation that artificial rebuilding of soil is to restore and reconstruct land destroyed in mining by artificial means. The essential problem with the restoration of mining engineering disturbed soil is to reconstruct soil profile, form proper soil physical and chemical properties in a very short period of time, and improve soil environment quality. A common method now in use in an open pit coal mine in Pingshuo, Shanxi is taken for example. Six soil forming factors are analyzed for how they influence soil forming of engineering disturbed soil in mining areas, and so artificial factors for their effects. And on such a basis, it is suggested that under the artificial soil order, a new soil type, “engineering disturbed soil”, be established, and based types of disturbance, this type of soil be further divided into engineering heaped soil and engineering sinking soil.
