Loose dirt is a version of the regular Dirt block that is subjected to gravity (like Sand or Gravel).

Mining Dirt or Grass without an Iron shovel will turn surrounding dirt and grass blocks into loose Dirt.

Mining loose dirt however will not loosen any other blocks, even if you're not using any tool.

  Mining regular dirt

• 

  Loosen the surrounding blocks on all sides

Loose dirt looks quite similar to Dirt, only a little darker, which can make them hard to differenciate.
