Question

What kind of soil is found in the c horizon of a soil profile

Answer 1

The types of mineral matter found in soil are: organic material, inorganic material, parent material, ... All the horizons and layers (A, B, C) make up soil profile.

Answer 2

The C horizon is at the bottom of soil profile. It consists of partially weathered rock. It doesn't contain much organic material and leaching doesn't occur to this point. The C horizon is the layer in soil profile that best describes parent material.
