@m_princeuc In this test we were hand-texturing to estimate the sand/silt/clay content. Don't worry, there were no chemical analyses performed on these handled samples.

@sOiLmAlOnE @MountMajuraWine @ourANU @ANUFennerSchool @anucecs Looks to be a brown chromosol with a lot of loam-clay-sand at depth. We had the students analysing the samples in the lab today. @MountMajuraWine I'll come and report all the results when I have them.
