COMPARATIVE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MINERALOGICAL STATUS OF GRAY FOREST SOILS ON THE COVERING SEDIMENTS OF MOLDOVA AND THE CENTRAL RUSSIAN UPLAND

Abstract

It is established that the silicate part of the gray forest soils on the covering sediments of Moldova and the Central Russian upland is presented close in composition and content of primary and clay minerals. The transformation of the mineralogical composition of both soils occurs under the influence of the same processes: the destruction of primary and clay minerals, lessivage, manifestation of podzolisation and a relative accumulation of quartz. The silicate part of the younger soil on the Central Russian upland contains signs of a higher degree of weathering, which is explained accordingly.
