X-Ray diffraction patterns: (a–d) Bulk samples (BS) of Andosols from zones I (a), II (b), III (c), IV (d). (e, f) Fragments of XRD patterns from oriented ≤ 1 µm samples in air-draied (AD) and ethylene-glycole solvated (EG) states for Andosols from zones II (e) and IV (f). Crystal lattice planes in Angstroms. The main reflections represent the following minerals: Sm—smectite, Zt—zeolites, K—kaolinite, K/S—kaolinite-smectite mixed layered minerals, Bm—boehmite, Gt—goethite, Qz—quartz, Fs—feldspars, Hem—hematite, Py—pyrite.
