Below we describe how this geometry can be used for environmental restoration and rehabilitation. We present a case study describing an application of fractal geometry to the restoration of a mined-out open pit. We conclude with a discussion of the advantages — mainly realism and the rapid execution time — of using this type of geometry versus 3D modelling for mining restorations. 2014 artículo científico 0012-7353 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=49631663007 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=496 Dyna application/pdf Universidad Nacional de Colombia Dyna (Colombia) Num.186 Vol.81
