Release of iron oxide in red‐brown soil formation from the weathering of limestone. II.—Role of grass extract
Abstract An aqueous grass extract was allowed to react with powdered limestone rock under controlled laboratory conditions at room temperature. The solution mobilised iron from limestone, in amount about 100 times that released by carbonic acid leaching. It is suggested that the action of the aqueou...
