Variances in the natural-environmental and artificial factors of the mining industry and of mining production were analyzed to achieve scientifically the ecological restoration of the Lu’an mining land system.

The land system can be categorized into the productive, protective, consumptive, and mixed land types based on eco-environmental performance. The Lu’an mining area was divided into four regions, namely, the uncultivated land consumptive zone (23.33 km 2
