Abstract
The study of iron content in young soils formed on pit heaps of technogenic landscapes allowed diagnosing the soil formation processes occurring there. Monitoring of the content and distribution of various forms of iron in embriozems showed the speed and direction of the soil-forming processes in disturbed ecosystems. It was detected that the ratio of different forms of iron and their distribution in the soil profile can be used as an indicator.
