  abstract = {{I}ncreasing pressure on mineral resources has drawn research efforts into innovative supply and recycling. {M}etal-rich biomass produced in phytoextraction recently proved an interesting starting material for green chemistry. {I}t allows the production of new catalysts, referred to as ecocatalysts. {E}cocatalysts provide increased yields in chemical production and increased regio- and chemo-selectivity, which result in high added value. {T}his new approach to using metal-rich biomass could spur the development of phytoextraction, a technique considered promising for long, yet without credible economic outlets. {I}n this regard, metallophyte biodiversity hotspots, such as {N}ew {C}aledonia, are of particular interest for biomass supply. {P}otential phytoextraction from mine spoils using two species endemic to {N}ew {C}aledonia is discussed here. {G}eissois pruinosa, a hypernickelophore, and {G}revillea exul, a {M}n accumulator, were selected for these original experiments. {T}he results presented here 20 months after plantation of young trees from a nursery show the interest of the approach. {M}ean {N}i concentrations of up to 1513 mg kg(-1) are reported in {G}. pruinosa, as well as 2000 mg kg(-1) {M}n in {G}. exul. {C}oncentrations of {N}i and {M}n in the leaves of each species appear to be correlated with leaf age. {P}lantation of these species may also ensure mine reclamation, and experiments were conducted with the principles of ecological restoration in mind adding a further dimension to the approach.},
