The soil had a wealth of minerals, trace elements, and rich humus. Some of these deposits are exceedingly rich in a little known substance called fulvic acid.

All i know about soils and minerals is that plants need them to stay alive. I know its not helpful. Sorry. :(
Though it may sound gross to some, this is an important part in fertilizing the soil: First, an animal comes through and eats something with any nutritional value. After going through the digestive process, it leaves solid waste. This waste has extra minerals and vitamins that the body did not need. Then the waste decomposes and becomes part of the soil. Now the soil has that animals extra vitamins and minerals, making it fertile.
Due to different kind of minerals present in soil.

Minerals
yes, animals need minerals from the soils.
Soils is made up of small pieces of minerals, rocks and organic material.

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).

yes, this is true
The sandy soils let the water pass through but the clay soils hold the water
No, some soils have to be conditioned or have additional minerals added to them. Some crops also remove minerals from the soil so they are allowed to just lie fallow.
