ABSTRACT

Land preparation for post-tin mining revegetation at Bangka Island will affect physical-chemical as well as heavy metals’ properties of the soil, and those properties affect plants distribution on the post-tin mining lands. The purpose of the research is to study the distribution of plants in the post-tin mining lands in relation to the physical-chemical properties and heavy metals’ concentrations in the revegetated soils. Four types of land use were selected to conduct this study, namely: forest, more than 5 year revegetated post-tin mining land, less than 5 year revegetated post-tin mining land and active tin mine. Soil samples were taken from a depth of 0-40 cm using a soil auger. Once taken, the samples were immediately brought to the laboratory for routine soil chemical analysis (pH, C,N, potential P and K, available P and K, exchangable cations, cations exchange capacity, base saturation, exchangeable acidity and metals (Fe, Mn, Cu,Zn, and Al) as well as heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Co, Cr, Ni, Mo, Ag, Sn) analysis. Plant species around the soil sampling site were identified at the Bangka Belitungense Herbarium at Bangka Belitung University. The data obtained were then analyzed were analyzed using multivariate statistical analysis with principal component analysis biplots (PCA biplots), as well as test for significance of Pearson's Correlation Coefficient using PAST v4.03. The number of families and the number of plant species have increased along revegetation activities with the highest was found in forest. The number of plant species has strong correlation with the chemical physical properties of soils and heavy metals. The strong positive correlation was found between the numbers of plant species with pH (KCl), C, N, C/N, available P, exchangeable Mg, Se, and As, while the negative strong correlation was observed with exchangeable Na and the relative proportion of silt.
