silty/loamy Explanation: This seems to be French (originating from FR 'limon' = DE 'Schluff') - there are many search hits proving that 'limoneux/-se' is the equivalent of 'silty/loamy' ('schluffig' in 'proper' German). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 57 mins (2015-08-26 08:52:06 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hence, the marls contain/include clayey, sandy and silty varities. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 57 mins (2015-08-26 08:52:31 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- ... varieties, of course. |
