Abstract
Se explica un modelo de restauración minera basado en principios geomorfológicos, denominado ‘cuencas en ladera’. El modelo establece un manejo experto de la escorrentía a partir de un diseño que compartimenta el relieve en pequeñas cuencas hidrográficas. Adicionalmente incluye criterios sobre el manejo de formaciones superficiales y suelos. Una restauración minera llevada a cabo según este modelo fue ejecutada durante el otoño de 2008 en una cantera de arcillas situada en La Higuera (Segovia). El seguimiento de la superficie restaurada pone de manifiesto un éxito de la restauración en términos de respuesta erosiva.
A mining reclamation model based on geomorphic principles, called ‘catchments on slopes’, is described. The model establishes an expert handling of open-cast mining runoff by means of a desing which splits off the slope landforms in small catchments. Aditionally, criteria for the handling of superficial deposits and soils are integrated. A clay slope quarry reclamation following this model was executed during the Autumn of 2008 at La Higuera (Segovia). The monitoring of the reclaimed surface shows a success of the reclamation in erosion terms.
