A soil stabilization system, method of stabilizing soil, and a stabilized soil having improved engineering characteristics such as increased bearing ratio and improved triaxial compression characteristics. Select embodiments comprise one or more lipophilic fluid mixtures, fibers which may be synthetic, natural or both, the lipophilic fluid and fibers mixed into soil of a pre-specified moisture content in pre-specified dry soil weight ratios. The system is optimized by adjusting the moisture content of the soil to a pre-specified figure prior to treatment, by compacting the treated soil to a pre-specified standard and finally by aging the resultant compacted treated soil for a pre-specified period to optimize engineering characteristics thereof. Select embodiments are suitable for use at temperatures approaching −60° F.
