Abstract: To explore the ecosystem service value of mine parks is of great significance to reasonably formulating mining ecological restoration policies, efficiently allocating environmental resources, and precisely planning future development paths. In this study, based on land use data and questionnaire data, we evaluated the ecosystem service value of Zijinshan Mine Park in Shanghang, Fujian Province, using unit area value equivalent factor method and conditional value method. The land use structure of the park varied significantly from 2005 to 2018. The net change of forest land was the largest, and the area of grassland and bare land increased gradually. The total ecosystem service value of the park increased from RMB 457.95 million in 2005 to RMB 478.04 million in 2012, and then decreased to RMB 417.65 million in 2018. Under the dual effects of “repairing while mining”, the ecosystem service value showed a trend of “overall decline and partial improvement”. Based on community residents’ positive attitude and their willingness to pay for the potential cultural service of the park, the total cultural service value of the park was estimated as RMB 140 million per year. Great value potential and residents’ recognition of environmental education and leisure and recreation play a basic role in driving the favorable development of the park.
