Land Rehabilitation
Restoring disturbed landscapes to safe, stable and productive conditions after mining, infrastructure and agricultural activities.
Restoring Value to Degraded Land
Land disturbance is often unavoidable in development projects. EARTH Environmental Consultants designs and supervises land rehabilitation programmes that stabilize soils, restore vegetation, manage contamination and create long-term beneficial land uses.
Mine & Quarry Closure
Rehabilitation of open pits, waste rock dumps, tailings facilities and borrow pits, with designs that reduce erosion, instability and contamination risk.
Re-vegetation & Soil Health
Soil profiling, amelioration and selection of appropriate species (indigenous and agro-forestry options) for long-term ecosystem recovery and productive land use.
Sustainable Land Use
Transitioning rehabilitated areas into agriculture, forestry, conservation or community infrastructure in line with local development plans.
