The state is entitled to demand asset recovery against mining corruption and/or illegal mining for alleged abuse of power, but the Corruption Crime Law only focuses on the confiscation of assets as an economic exchange value, so standardization of allocations for ecological recovery is needed as an effort to restructure post-mining land. This research aims to clarify the concept of ecological based asset recovery related to corruption cases in the mining sector, specifically within the context of Indonesia's Asset Confiscation Law. This type of research is normative, employing a statutory approach to rationalize facts and establish a legal basis for recovering assets derived from criminal acts of corruption in vital natural resources. This research shows, first, the results of the rationality research in the form of arguments that manipulative actions in the mining sector with indications of gaining profits are corruption, corruption in the mining sector is an act that is detrimental to state finances, and the mining sector is an exploitative activity that requires allocation of ecological recovery. Second, the Draft Law on Asset Confiscation is recommended to regulate the systematic confiscation of mining corruption proceeds, aiming not only to support economic recovery but also to facilitate ecological recovery. This regulation encompasses asset management, the allocation of ecological loss costs, the allocation of economic losses, and the allocation of ecological recovery costs.
