Silt is a fine-grained fertile soil deposited by water.
Silt and soil are typically deposited in areas near water sources such as rivers, streams, and lakes. They settle in these areas due to the action of water carrying and depositing sediment as it flows. This process is known as sedimentation.
The soil that is deposited is called silt. The landform that is often created by deposited silt at the mouth of a river is called a river delta.

The soil that is deposited by a river to form landforms such as river bars and river deltas is called silt. A river delta is the name of the landform that is created the mouth of a river.
Soil rich in minerals deposited by flooding rivers is called silt.
The fine soil that was deposited at the mouth of a river in Egypt was called silt.
Silt soil is found in areas where water has deposited fine particles of rock, such as river valleys, floodplains, and deltas. It can also be found in areas where glaciers have melted and deposited sediment. Silt soil is typically fertile and well-draining, making it suitable for agriculture.
Alluvial soil is the term that describes soil developed from silt and clay deposited by a flooding river. This type of soil is typically fertile and well-draining due to its composition.
The soil or sediments itself is called silt, and the landform that is often created at the mouths of rivers is called a river delta. Sand bars are also created in rivers and other waterways by deposited silt.
Soil deposited by water could be silt or mud.
