Abstract
The former tin mining land in Mempayak Village in Belitung Regency created a basin that becomes water catchment area when it rains and becomes a source of clean air during the dry season. The heavy rain occurred in 2017 brought vast amounts of soil material depending on the ex-mining basins in this village. This study aims to inventory of vegetation that grows and discusses its use by the communities around the Mempayak Village. Vegetation that succeeded in changing 34 species grouped into 20 families and 31 genera. Vegetation in this former tin mining land has benefits as a raw material for making a single drug without mixture (34 species), food (2 species), roofing material (1 species), cutting tools (1 species), chicken feed (1 species), and straws (1 species). Vegetation body parts that are useful for the above purposes include: roots (2 species), petiolus (1 species), shoots (1 species), leaf blades (2 species), young stems (2 species), old stems (2 species), and all parts of the plant body (14 species), and unknown parts of the plant body used by the surrounding community (9 species). The success of vegetation on ex-mining land has been taking place by spending a variety of types and diverse uses by the people of Mempayak Village, Manggar District, Belitung Regency. Efforts to manage the area and manage vegetation are needed to protect the preservation of vegetation on ex-tin mining land and work carried out at high speed.
