The reclamation and rehabilitation of the mined out lands is mandatory as per the Mineral Laws existing in India and other Environmental laws. As it is seen, the mining and its associated impacts like air pollution, water pollution, and land use Track changes are inevitable. However, the well planned and executed Environment Management Plan Biodiversity to control and reduce these impacts is very essential. Therefore, planned decommissioning, closure and reclamation planning have in recent years become a legal necessity in India since 2003 as pragmatic business approach and an environmental responsibility are viewed as an integrated part of mining cycle. As the main impact of mining seen is land degradation, land management is important aspect of the Environment Management Plan. The scientific approach for the reclamation and rehabilitation of mined out land involves the use of eco efficient in situ technologies by careful selection of tree species, control of already existing plant and microbial flora, analyses the soil properties, nutrients, prediction of further development of herbaceous, and microbial communities, along with possibility of amendment and herbicide applications is essential for successful mine site restoration. The present study is about well rehabilitated and reclaimed mine pit falling within the ‘Redi Iron Ore Mine (Block II), of M/s Gogte Minerals, located at Redi Village, Taluka Vengurla, District Sindhudurg, and Maharashtra. The results obtained after 7 years are very impressive and plant biodiversity appeared to be very high. The local species are more preferable to other species because they are most likely to fit into an ecosystem and are quickly climatically adapted. Besides the Mine is pit is being used as water reservoir and the water from this pit is treated in the State of Art Water Treatment Plant and supplied to the villagers for drinking purpose through the Village Panchayat. The Mine pit is well rehabilitated and stabilised with the thick plantation and eventually the said Mine Pit is turned into the stabilized ‘Ecological Niche’.

Abstract
An improved protocol of direct somatic embryogenesis and shoot regeneration was developed in Guizotia abyssinica for the first-time using Type leaf explants from in vitro raised shoots. In the present study, cytokinin’s 6- Oral Presentation benzylaminopurine (BAP) and kinetin (Kin) and auxins indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), and 2,4-dichloro phenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) assessed individually and in combination for their effectiveness to Track induce direct somatic embryogenesis and shoot regeneration. Maximum frequency of explants responding for somatic embryo (SE) formation and Plant number of SEs per explant was observed on MS medium containing 1.0 mg l Biotechnology -1 BAP together with 0.5 mg l -1 IAA. SEs germinated easily on transferred to MS medium supplemented with 0.25 mg l -1 BAP for two weeks and then plantlets on MS containing 0.25 mg l -1 NAA in next two weeks. This system increases the efficiency of explants responding to somatic embryogenesis to 100%, minimizes the influence of environmental factors and HgCl 2 on response of explant, and also chances of appearance of developmental aberrations due to 2,4-D and callus intervention. At the same time reduces the process of somatic embryogenesis in G. abyssinica by 4-6 weeks. Over 90% of regenerated plantlets survived following hardening and transfer to a mixture of sand and soil (2:1, v/v) in earthen pots. Morphological, cytological and flow cytometric analysis suggested that the plantlets were phenotypically and genetically similar. The method described here provides an efficient tissue culture system for rapid propagation, somaclonal variation, genetic transformation, and somatic hybridization.
