Abstract: Soft rock is a kind of inadequately developed mudstone and siltstone. Soft rock region is the core energy base in the Yellow River basin, it is also the area with the most fragile ecological environment and the most serious soil erosion. Based on the requirement of ecological construction and the characteristics of soft rock, the authors reviewed the soil erosion characteristics and improvement measures in soft rock region. Taking into consideration the new idea of“resource utilization, changing harm to treasure”, the authors summarized new applications of soft rock as modified building materials, formula parent material and mine renovation material, and put forward exploring the potential of soft rock as non-mineral resource and tourism resource. The results could provide new ideas for ecological construction of soft rock region, which had great significance to realize the resource utilization of soft rock.
