Lateriittipintojen
Lateriittipintojen refers to surfaces composed of laterite, a soil and rock type rich in iron and aluminum. Laterite is a terrestrial weathering product formed in tropical and subtropical regions. Its distinctive reddish-brown color comes from the high concentration of iron oxides. Laterite is typically found in tropical rainforests and monsoon climates where high temperatures and heavy rainfall lead to intense chemical weathering of underlying bedrock.
The physical characteristics of lateritic surfaces vary significantly depending on the parent material and the degree
The formation of laterite involves the leaching of soluble elements like silica, sodium, potassium, and calcium
