“…Soil concentrations of heavy metals are not well correlated with biological availability due to differences in binding and immobilization (Feng et al 2005;Almas et al 2004). Low aqueous solubility reduces foliar uptake and enhances metal binding to organic matter, though acidic deposition enhances solubility and bioavailability (Lingua et al 2008).…”

“…The chief environmental impacts of its practice are changes in soil stratification, reduced biotic diversity, and alteration of structure and functioning of ecosystems; these changes ultimately influence water and nutrient dynamics, and trophic interactions (Matson et al, 1997;Almas et al, 2004;Ghose, 2004). Furthermore, loss of soil during stripping and stockpiling causes not all mined areas will be recovered with soil during revegetation (BPK, 2008).…”

Coal mine overburden (OB) materials were nutrient-poor, loosely adhered particles of shale, stones, boulders, and cobbles, also contained elevated concentration of trace metals. This condition cause OB substrate did not support plants growth. However, there were certain species that able to grow on overburden dumping site. This investigation sought to identify plants species that presence on coal mine overburden. The research was conducted on opencast coal mine OB dumping site in Satui, South Kalimantan. Vegetation sampling was carried out on six different ages of coal mine OB dumps (7, 10, 11, 42, 59 and 64 month) using line transect. Species identification used information from local people, AMDAL report of PT Arutmin Indonesia-Satui mine project, and website. There were 123 plant species, consisted of 79 herbs (Cyperaceae, Poaceae and Asteraceae), 10 lianes, bryophyte, 9 ferns, 10 shrubs, and 14 trees. A number of Poaceae, i.e., Paspalum conjugatum, Paspalum dilatatum, and Echinochloa colona generally present among the stones, boulders, and cobbles. While Cyperaceae such as Fimbristylis miliaceae, Cyperus javanicus, Rhyncospora corymbosa and Scleria sumatrensis most often found in and around the basin/pond with its smooth and humid substrate characteristics. Certain species of shrubs and trees have been present on the 7 month OB dumping site. They were Chromolaena odorata, Clibadium surinamense, Melastoma malabathricum, Trema micrantha, and Solanum torvum (Shrubs), Ochroma pyramidale and Homalanthus populifolius (trees). This plant species could be used for accelerating primary succession purpose on coal mine overburden dumping site. Nevertheless, species selection was needed to avoid planting invasive species.

“…It was indicated by a prolongation of growth rate, log period, lag period and generation time (Mahapatra and Banerjee 1996). Although metals may induce changes in the microbial community resulting in microorganisms more resistant to metals (Almås et al, 2004), most essential and non essential metals exhibit toxicity above a certain concentration.…”

“…1mM of Pb +2 increased the growth slightly of P. verrucosum KNU3 as a resistant fungal strains. This adaptation was suggested to refer to two factors (Almås et al, 2004). The first one is a gradual decrease in metal availability due to immobilization reactions.…”

This study was conducted to investigate the tolerance of some resistant fungal strains from soils contaminated with heavy metals. Various fungal strains were isolated from soil samples collected from studied sites which heavy metals and other pollutants have been emitted in effluents for several years. Fungi isolated belong to different genera; however, Penicillium spp. showed the most frequent species. The microbial number was remarkably higher in the control soil than contaminated soil samples collected from mining areas.
