It　is　a　fast　and　effective　method　to　evaluate　the　ecological　environment　of　mining　area　using　remote　sensing　technology.　In　this　paper,　Landsat　series　data　from　1992　to　2017　were　used　to　monitor　the　change　of　ecological　environment　of　Zijin　Mine,　located　in　the　west　of　Fujian　province,　China.　After　radiometric　calibration,　the　normalized　difference　vegetation　indexes　(NDVI)　of　Landsat　TM　or　OLI　from　1992　to　2017　were　calculated.　Based　on　NDVI　data,　the　change　of　vegetation　coverage　of　environment　around　Zijin　mountain　gold-copper　deposit　was　analyzed.　The　results　indicated　that:　(　1)　The　area　of　Zijin　mountain　gold-copper　deposit　was　increasing　from　1992-2017.　During　1996-2001,　the　area　of　mine　was　increasing　rapidly　because　of　large-scale　blasting　for　removing　loading　strata　in　1997,　and　it　became　obviously　larger　from　2014-2017　due　to　the　copper　price　increases.　(2)the　NDVI　around　Zijin　mountain　raised　from　1992　to　2014,　indicating　a　better　vegetation　recovery,　but　it　reduced　from　2014　to　2017,　indicating　a　worse　vegetation　recovery.　low　NDVI　mainly　exist　in　the　middle　of　Zijin　deposit,　which　is　relate　to　mining　activities.　These　results　can　give　some　scientific　references　for　assessment　of　Zijin　gold-copper　deposit　ecological　environment.
