Indeed, although limestone quarries provide refuges for some endemic species (Clements et al., 2006), extraction activities lead to a complete loss of topsoil, compaction of the remaining soil, nutrient depletion and high pH that makes natural establishment of vegetation very unlikely (Cohen-Fernndez, 2012).

The first use of limestone and dolomite also occurred in the late 1700s and early 1800s. It is known that lime was sold for whitewashing and plastering as early as 1817. By the mid 1800s, limestone was the most valuable building material among Ohio's natural resources. Its Citizen's Guide to Mining and Reclamation in Ohio 3

Morocco is a mining country by excellence, with 240 mining sites distributed throughout its territory. Many mines deposit waste rock and waste from excavation and ore processing. As a result, they harm the surrounding environment by their negative impacts, manifested by dust, soil and water pollution, the destruction or disruption of natural habitats of local flora and fauna, and visual impacts. on the

In New South Wales, an authorisation under the Mining Act 1992 (the Mining Act) must be granted by the Minister for Resources before anyone can prospect, explore for or mine privately and publicly owned minerals, whether on Crown or private land. Before a mining lease can be granted, development consent must be obtained under the Environmental Planning Assessment Act 1979.

Limestone is an important raw material that is widely used for multiple agricultural and industrial purposes (Pamukcu, and Simsir, 2006). Rapid economic development and the growth of urban areas in many countries have increased need for limestone which, in turn, created many abandoned quarrying sites in urban areas offering unique challenges to urban agency managers such as foresters, and
