	Morphological Notes
	B2323	the granuar structure of the B22 seems to be earthy, the other structural peds of B23 have rough 
	fabrics.
	Observation Notes
	dolerite cobbles and gravels show a thick (0.5-1cm) weathering rim of yellow coarse sandy medium clay loam, at the out rim the colour 
	changes to red.
