Sites left to spontaneous vegetation succession and those technically reclamed were studied and compared on dumps in the Most Region, NW Czech Republic. Data were sampled in summer 2008 and 2010. Species composition and species diversity were analyzed using phytosociological reléves arranged along 100m transects. Alfa- and beta-diversity were evaluated. There were significant differences between sites in alfadiversity. Beta-diversity was highest in the spontaneously re-vegetated sites. There were also differences in species composition among the studied sites. I consider using spontaneous succession as appropriate in restoration of land disturbed by brown coal mining. It is a good alternative to expensive technical reclamation.
