Now the soil has that animals extra vitamins and minerals, making it fertile.


Does liquefaction have minerals?

Liquefaction is a process that occurs within soils that are poorly drained and contain pore water when seismic waves pass through them. Therefore in the soil minerals will be present. This phenomenon tends to occur in course grained soils such as poorly compacted sands. As such it is likely that mienrals such as quaertz and feldspars may be present although the mineralogy of the soil is the no the controlling factor in the case of liquefaction, it is instead the depositional environment (which controls grain size) and the degree of overburden load (which will control compaction).
