The article deals with the suffusion resistance of mineral soils. Calculations were performed to substantiate the absence of suffusion in some samples. The results of assessing the suffusion stability of the investigated soils in accordance with the geometrical removal criterion are presented. Dependences are given that take into account the decrease in the pore size of the soil and the increase in the particle size due to the formation of films of bound water.
