Abstract

In this paper formation factors for ecological state of soils in the location area of rock overburden dumps formed as a result of the development of Gusevogorsky deposit are studied. Gusevogorsky deposit is located in the Kachkanar district of the Middle Urals. This deposit contains vanadium-containing titanomagnetite ores, and therefore the rocks and ores of this territory contain the following association of chemical elements: vanadium, cadmium, silicon, arsenic, nickel, chromium, and zinc. A rock overburden dump is a potential source of anthropogenic impact on environmental components, including soils through fugitive dust emissions. Thus, in our work two formation factors for ecological state of soils in the given territory are considered: 1) overburden rock geochemical composition; 2) pollutant dispersion air streams from the dump.
