Abstract/Description: | The mineralogical compositions and some relevant soil properties of four pedons occurring along toposequence in Chhota Urla village of Abhanpur tehsil, Raipur district of Chhattisgarh, were studied. Landform had large influence on physical, chemical, elemental and mineralogical properties of soils. Sand content decreased from higher topography to lower one but it was reverse for clay. pH ranged from strongly acid (P1 - Upland Bhata soils) to moderately alkaline (P4- Lowland Kanhar soils) and CEC increased from upland to lowland. euartz was dominant in sand fractions but lack in Ca-feldspar, K-feldspar indicating intense weathering condition. Silt fraction had quartz as dominant mineral followed by Ca-feldspar and K-feldspar. Pedon Pl and P2 (Midland Matasi soils) had kaolin as dominant mineral with sub-ordinate amount of smectite while smectite was dominant in P3 (Midland Dorsa soils) and P4 followed by kaolin in clay fraction. Huge amount of smectite, first weathering product of plagioclase in p3 and P4, did not find its parental legacy with underlying geologz indicative of mixed alluvium, eroded from different geological formation. |
