This material, waste rock, is often discarded in huge piles, somewhere near the pit perimeter. Thus, mineralized rock is exposed to air and water in numerous mining locations: open pit walls, underground workings, waste rock piles, exposed tailings, and road cuts. Chemical reactions of the rock with air, water and bacteria often create acidic

The soils forming on waste rock dump surfaces at the Bingham Canyon Mine have paste pH values ranging from 2.08 to 7.91. Paste conductivity, a measure of soil salinity, varies between 22 and 8750 μS cm−1. The primary controls on waste rock soil pH and salinity are the sulphide distribution in the waste rock, the amount of limestone present and the age of the waste rock dump surface.
