Abstract
The article touches upon the overgrowth of developed sand quarries in the conditions of the Western sibirian north taiga plain forest region. On the basis of the trial plots? Quantitative and qualitative indicators of undergrowth formed in the depleted sand quarries were established. It has been established that the process of natural overgrowing stretches for a long period. Even 35–40 years after the cessation of sand mining, the amount of undergrowth on most the trial plots is not enough to transfer the quarry to the lands covered with forest vegetation. The reasons for slow overgrowth of a quarry in woody vegetation is overblowing of the sand by the wind the low fertility of the sandy substrate and the lack of seeds. To accelerate the overgrowth process it is recommended to cover the surface of the worked-out quarry with a layer of plat sand mixture of 15–20 sm, as well as to fix the sand by sowing and grass planting. With a distance to reliable of more than 100 m, it is advisable to carry out a ball range of reclamation works including the surface covering with a layer of plat sand mixture as well as creating forest plantations of pine. A combination of natural and artificial reforestation well minimize the cost of land reclamation and will accelerate the involvement of disturbed lands in forestry turnover.
