A seminar entitled (Improving some geotechnical properties of cohesive and non-cohesive soils by adding basalt fibers and cement).  Hold at the College of Science, Geology Department. The presenter Ansam  Haleem Khudhair demonstrates the most important objectives of studying and focusing  on the use of basalt rock fibers as a waste product from Iraqi mining factories and mixing them with Portland cement additives in different proportions to determine the best stability ratio for the stabilizers.
