When a spill hits the ground, it doesn’t politely stay put. It travels — sometimes slowly, sometimes fast — through soil pores and groundwater channels, turning a localized issue into a complex environmental puzzle. Understanding how and why contaminants migrate is critical to building an effective soil remediation plan. How Contaminants Move Underground Contaminants follow predictable paths based on soil composition, moisture, and gravity. In sandy or loose soils, liquids can move quickly. In dense clays, contaminants may linger for decades. Migration...

Mining built much of the modern world — but it also left behind landscapes that can pose environmental and safety risks. The good news?
