heal.abstract	At the beginning of this century, the mining industry trends began to change, due to the new environmental regulations, not only referring to mining but to the general industrial sector and specifying in the mining sector, rehabilitation projects in the mine life-cycle end are becoming more and more important nowadays. There already are some countries that have specific legislation for that, which force the mining companies to have a specific mine closure project along with a rehabilitation project, and they have a fine that may be applied, and entails the loss of the exploitation. Nonetheless, there are still many abandoned mines around the world that are not rehabilitated, due to the country legislation where they are. Since each one has a different one, and could be said that this mining trend is a new one, which most countries not apply. The most remarkable problem of mining rehabilitation is the lack of funds, since the mine closure is the most expensive stage and when the mine is not in a very strict country in terms of legislation, almost all the mining companies decide not to rehabilitate the space. Despite that, some improvements in this field are being done over the time, but it is not known any specific guideline to carry out all the rehabilitation projects, since every mine is different both the land and the material, also the climate or the needs of the nearby population. At the moment all the available information is based on previous projects and studies.Due to the fact that this issue is beginning to be a concern of many sectors, the research that is carried out on it, is becoming more important. However, the information that exists on the subject is quite subjective and variable, since there many valid options to carry out a mine rehabilitation depending on the area. For this reason it is necessary to prioritize the different activities that can be applied, and know which are the best methodologies for each mine depending on the area where it is located. Due to all the factors mentioned, this thesis try to find the barriers presented by the carrying out of mining rehabilitations in the different countries, the different techniques that exist in order to carry them out, and the factors that influence the process, such as environmental, technical and economic ones	en
