A soil mixing apparatus for mixing soil and a media. The apparatus
comprises a housing having a rotatable auger mounted longitudinally
within the housing. The housing is provided with a first lower end, an
intermediate section and a second raised end, the second raised end
raised relative to said first lower end. A hopper is coupled to the first
lower end of the housing so that the rotatable auger extends into the
hopper for moving the soil toward the second raised end. A valve
apparatus is coupled to the housing at the intermediate section of the
housing for introducing the media to the soil as the soil is moved from
the hopper to the second raised end. The rotatable auger is provided with
a series of spaced flites so that the soil can be moved from the first
lower end through the intermediate section and to the second raised end.
An inlet water supply allows water to be introduced at the intermediate
section. A treatment inlet supply allows an additive to be added to the
soil at the intermediate section.
