Description
Summary:The change of land use caused by mining operation indeed affect the availability of groundwater that exist in the surrounding region. Especially mining operation that used open-pit methods for its operation. Open-pit mine is a surface mining technique that extracts coal by removing the overburden that conceals the coal itself. By removing the materials located above the coal, it will indeed affect the hydrology condition of the region whether it is the groundwater elevation or groundwater availability of the surrounding area because some aquifer were cut in the process that leads to groundwater disturbance.. This condition indeed reflects the condition of the research model area in Meureubo, West Aceh Regency. Geologically, the formation that exists in the research area is tutut formation which has dip
