removal of overlying burden material
leads to formation of extensive spoil-
piles with steep slopes
Impacts have to be rehabilitated into
stabile self sustaining eco-systems with
no off-site pollution

Severe soil losses on fragile, water
repellent and non-vegetated soils of
post mine sites
Erosion processes are strongly involved
in acidification of surface waters
Long-term renaturation of mine sites needs reliable assessment of soil erosion risks

Rainfall simulator: - Three linked rainfall modules (height: 2 m, plot size: 3x1 m)
- Each with VeeJet Nozzles 80/100
- Runoff and sediment are collected
- Two steps: infiltration and erosion experiment
- Runoff feeding device allows simulation of variable virtual
lenght of slope up to 50 m (SCHINDEWOLF, 2012)

Water repellency contributes to increased surface runoff
Concentrated runoff in surface depressions produces high erosion rate
Calibration factor for water repellency enables use of EROSION 3D for
modelling erosion processes on post minesites
