Abstract
Abstract: The rehabilitation of forest and other woody vegetation ecosystems on mineral extraction sites is common place and a major post-mining land use throughout Australia. Owing to the need for government certification (under Australian and State legislation specified completion criteria which are indicative of rehabilitation goals are or have been achieved) there is often referral to and comparison with reference native vegetation sites.
