Glenthompson Granite Land Unit

This land unit comprises a small area of Cambrian granite south of Glenthompson. The major landform is undulating rises. The soils tend to have a strong texture contrast with a sodic subsoil (Sodosols). There are many ferromanganiferous nodules above the clay subsoil. The mottled subsoil and the bleached A2 horizon indicate that the soil is imperfectly drained. This feature, together with the ferric horizon, would be the major restriction for land use.
