Nedyalkov (1996) reported the first ISR activity at the Sclishte in 1961. From 1981, ISL of broken hard rock was also used to increase the yield from mined-out conventional underground mines.

"Soil acidity" is the term used to express the quantity of hydrogen (H +) and aluminum (Al 3+) cations (positively charged ions) in soils (), and soil pH is an indicator of acidity.The pH is the negative logarithm of the hydrogen concentration, expressed on a scale from 1 to 14 (Figure 2a and Figure 2b).A pH of 7.0 is defined as neutral, with values below 7.0 being acidic and above 7.0 ...

The low pH of acid soils can be counteracted by mixing in crushed limestone or wood ash. The amount needed depends on the pH change and the soil texture. Raising the pH from 5.0 to 6.5 in a sandy loam requires 85 pounds of limestone per 1,000 square feet. A clay loam needs 165 pounds.

This is because many of the organic materials used in soil tend to be acidic and dolomite lime helps to neutralie some of that acidity. Other calcium sources such as oyster shell can also be used to help neutralie acidity. Gypsum is a great additive for soils that already have a relatively stable pH.

Calcite has numerous uses as a neutralizer of acids. For hundreds of years, limestones and marbles have been crushed and spread on fields as an acid-neutralizing soil treatment. They are also heated to produce lime that has a much faster reaction rate in the soil. Calcite is also used as an acid neutralizer in the chemical industry.
