	Morphological Notes
	A11	0-3cm is sandy clay, probably representing recent flood addition to a prior soil, but not 
	thick enough to recognize separately. Profile below 1m depth is sandy also. Compare 
	MVpH, a sandy version. Prominent vertical worm burrows in lower pa
	A12	rt of the soil, partly infilled with inwashed A horizon.

	Parent Rock: alluvial sediment, mixed texture, with lime,  parna on third fan, Namoi
	Site Notes
	The core is a sandy version of MVpH, compare cu001. Surface is also sandy, suggesting that there is very little recent flood 
	deposit.
