Even wikipedia uses 'après-mine' in English!

Le Code Minier prévoit que, lorsque le concessionnaire d’une mine a disparu, l’État prenne en charge les travaux de mise en sécurité du site exploité - Il s’agit avant tout d’éviter que le public accède à des zones dangereuses de l’exploitation …

Les exploitations minières peuvent poser des problèmes en terme de stabilité des sols et de modification du régime des eaux souterraines. Des mesures permettent de prévenir ces risques. Le Plan de Prévention des Risques Miniers (PPRM) est un outil de gestion du risque minier par une réglementation de l’urbanisation et de l’aménagement d’un territoire.

L'après-mine: Depuis les années 1980-1990, et dans un nombre croissant de pays, des programmes de réhabilitation paysagère ou environnementale sont maintenant imposés aux exploitants publics ou privés. Pour éviter les faillites frauduleuses ou tardivement justifiées par l'appauvrissement du gisement ou un changement dans sa rentabilité, les exploitants sont, dans certains pays, contraints de constituer durant leur activité, sur un compte bloqué contrôlé par l'État, la « provision financière » nécessaire au financement de cette réhabilitation …

Une mine peut aussi bien être souterraine qu’à ciel ouvert.

Don't F**K with me! I spent an hour in order to help you and the first thing you write is 'No, it doesn't use après-mine in english.' By the way, it's English with a capital 'E'! Did you read my FIRST sentence? It's from wikipedia! I also give you the link so that you may check it out yourself!

Asker: No, it doesn't use après-mine in english. I am translating the wikipedia article in question and left that as a reminder that when I get an answer I'll remove the french word. when other editors see it, they'd redflag it also.
