**Natur nach dem Tagebau** (Nature after open-pit mining) refers to the ecological recultivation and renaturation of former open-pit mining landscapes, such as those in the German lignite mining regions. After coal extraction ends, the areas are reforested, converted into lakes, and restored to create new habitats for plants, animals, and recreational use.
