Abstract: The study demonstrates the prospects of using mining waste as components of nature-like ameliorants to increase the environmental sustainability of mining engineering systems (GTS). The aim of the work was to determine the most effective combinations of substrates based on meliorants and irrigation types. The studies were conducted using the example of two crops: watercress (Lepidium sativum L.) and soybeans (Glycine max (L.) Merr.), using various substrates, including soil, humic ameliorant (GM), ferro-magnesium ameliorant (FMM), as well as distilled and "magnesium water" for irrigation. The results showed that the optimal substrate for watercress was a mixture of soil and GM when watered with distilled water, which ensured 100% seed germination and significant root system development. For soybeans, the most favorable condition was the use of clean soil (100%) with magnesium water irrigation. These results emphasize the need for a differentiated approach to the selection of meliorants for different crops, which is critically important when designing reclamation measures as part of the GTS during the development of copper-bearing deposits.
