The natural undisturbed angle of repose of sand and gravel is about 1.5H to 1V slope. This is seen at a gravel mine where processed material is discharged from a conveyor and forms a cone shaped pile. The friction angle of the soil allows the gravel to form a pile. When soils contain less than about 5% moisture, it is too dry.

Natural causes such as fault movement or sediment compaction can cause subsidence. More commonly, however, the cause is man-made. Groundwater pumping, mining, oil and gas extraction, river channelization, and other manipulation of the ground can cause soil disruption that leads to subsidence.
