Soil Properties of The Quarry Areas in Suleymanpaşa-Tekırdag
Öz
The purpose of this research is to determine the
soil properties of the areas where stone quarries are located in Süleymanpaşa
district of Tekirdağ province of Turkey, and to find out whether they are
suitable for agriculture. To this end, the study analyzed the Great Soil Groups
Map and Land Use Capability Map of the region and identified the borders of the
quarries on these maps. The borders of the quarries were superimposed on these
maps using the software ArcGIS. The research results indicated that the whole
area of the quarries covers class II and class III lands and the quarries
operate in Grumusol and Brown Forest Soils. The total amount of agricultural
land removed by stripping operations of the quarries operating in a total area
of 206 hectares was computed using the data on average soil depth and bulk
density and found to be 4,622,000 tons.
