Abstract
Reclaimed mining rocks can be potential lands for biofuel feedstock production. Minelands
are considered marginal because they often have low organic matter contents and adverse soil
physical and chemical characteristics. Establishing perennial grasses such as switchgrass (Panicum
virgatum L.) on these lands can be an economically viable option to produce cellulosic biomass
with the addition of biological agents such as fertilizers, cinder and sewage sludge.
