Abstract: Objectives To systematically synthesize the practical experience and theoretical insights of ecological restoration and regional transformation in the coal mining subsidence areas， the Pan’an Lake area in Jiawang， Xuzhou，was selected as a typical study area.  Methods This study systematically analyzed the ecological restoration and transformation development process of the study area  and summarized the measures and effectiveness of coal mining subsidence area governance over a span of more than 20 years based on tracking investigations， field surveys， data analysis， and spatiotemporal comparisons.  Results The results indicate that，from the initial resource development to the present， the Pan’an Lake mining subsidence area has undergone three major stages： resource development， governance project planning and implementation， and ecological-economic transformation. Through two phases of governance projects and a series of supporting projects， measures including land reclamation， vegetation restoration， traffic improvement， environmental monitoring， landscape construction and tourism resource introduction were implemented， guiding the area to transition from an extensive resource-based development model to a green and sustainable development model. Conclusions The governance experience of the Pan’an Lake coal mining subsidence area represents a regional transformation and development model centered on large-scale governance projects. With ecological transformation as the guiding principle and targeted systemic engineering as key measures， this model has driven industrial transformation， urban transformation， and social transformation. As an important case of mining subsidence area governance， the ecological restoration and transformation  experience of Pan’an Lake can provide scientific guidance and reference for the transformation and sustainable development of coal mining areas in China and worldwide.
