Abstract: The research was conducted to investigate the correlation of soil parameters (soluble Ions and Oxygen) on the corrosion rate of buried low carbon mild steel A106 specification. Six samples were subjected to soil samples gotten from Gidan Kwano Minna, Niger State. Each sample was exhumed with 14 days interval, to study the influence of soil properties towards metal loss via weight loss method with respect to time. The steel samples were buried in the soil, allowed to corrode naturally and then retrieved every 336 hours. The influence of soil soluble ions and oxygen were evaluated using the weight loss method to evaluate the corrosion rate on coupons in the soil. Results showed that that both parameters had an influence on buried steel but soil sulphate had a corrosive influence.
