Abstract:The development and utilization of mineral resources have different degrees of negative impact on the natural environment and ecosystems. It is of great significance to study the relationship between mineral resources development and environmental protection. In this context, this paper studied the relationship between environmental pollution caused by mineral resources development and environmental remediation capacity, as well as the relationship between ecosystem impact caused by mineral resources development and ecosystem remediation capacity, and analyzed how to use environmental self-purification and ecological self-remediation capacity to achieve the balance between resource development and ecological protection at the lowest cost. The difficulty of artificial restoration under the conditions of protective mining and non-protective opening of different mines was given by combining qualitative and quantitative analysis, which guided the construction of green mines from the macro level.
