Abstract
Mine soil reclamation analysis is important because it helps characterize the chemical composition of mine soil. Fourier transform infrared analysis provides valuable insight into the chemical composition, contaminant content and overall quality of mine soil, enabling informed decision-making and effective reclamation practices. It was investigated reclaimed mine soil in Bulgaria was analysed. The aim is to analyse the soil quality and obtain more comprehensive information for future monitoring. There is a common class of soil minerals, namely carbonates, which reduce the mobility of metals. Anthropogenic contaminants such as alkanes and aromatic compounds, which are toxic and could potentially contaminate groundwater or affect the health of organisms in the ecosystem. Fourier transform infrared spectra for iron metal oxides have been found to be key indicators of pedogenic processes such as weathering and strongly influence soil colour as well as retention of ions and anthropogenic compounds.
