Abstract

Mining is an activity that causes biodiversity degradation. One type of open-pit mining that affects the environment is limestone mining which is carried out in karst areas. Karts is one of the ecosystems whose area is limited but has a high level of endemic biodiversity. Therefore, conservation efforts in the form of in situ conservation are not sufficient, it is necessary to pursue ex-situ conservation as well. To support the preservation of biodiversity in the karst area, PT Semen Tonasa is working to build a Bulu Sipong park. Bulu Sipong is a karst hill that is part of the proposed biodiversity park along with ex-clay mining areas. Therefore, management is needed basic data of biodiversity that occurred at Bulu Sipong park. This data is important to be used in preparing plans for the enrichment of biodiversity in the area. Vegetation observation was carried out using a square plot. Data were analyzed by calculating the dominance, density, frequency, and important value index. Furthermore, an analysis of the conservation status and endemicity of vegetation was carried out. The results showed that the diversity index of Bulu Sipong park was still moderate. Therefore, this paper discusses recommendations for managing the Bulu Sipong Park.
