It receives its name from its soil ( weathered from the weak underlying limestone ), which is black in colour, almost destitute of sand and loam, and rich in limestone and marl formations, especially adapted to the production of cotton ; hence the region is also called the Cotton Belt.

North of the mineral region is the Cereal Belt, embracing the Tennessee Valley and the counties beyond, whose richest soils are the red clays and dark loams of the river valley ; north of which are less fertile soils, produced by siliceous and sandstone formations.

At Descartes, the Cayley and Descartes formations were the primary areas of interest in that scientists suspected, based on telescopic and orbital imagery, that the terrain found there was formed by magma more viscous than that which formed the lunar maria.

Although higher level teams may select from a wide range of formations, teams containing inexperienced players or teams which see frequent changes to their players are likely to select from a more limited range of formations such as 4 – 3 – 3, 5 – 3 – 2 and 4 – 4 – 2.

This can frequently lead to formations such as 1 – 4 – 4 – 1 which is an adaptation of 4 – 4 – 2.

As organisms exist at the same time period throughout the world, their presence or ( sometimes ) absence may be used to provide a relative age of the formations in which they are found.

The most important formations are the Cretaceous Chalk, exposed as the high ground in the north and west of the county, forming the Chiltern Hills and the younger Palaeocene, Reading Beds and Eocene, London Clay which occupy the remaining southern part.

Extensive horizontal mesas are capped by sedimentary formations and support woodlands of junipers, pinon, and ponderosa pines, each favoring different elevations.

Many of the scuba diving tours come to this area as well, where there are sunken ships, sea mountains, and cave rock formations.

There are burr wood and buttress root formations in Andaman Padauk.

For example, the allotropes of carbon include diamond ( where the carbon atoms are bonded together in a tetrahedral lattice arrangement ), graphite ( where the carbon atoms are bonded together in sheets of a hexagonal lattice ), graphene ( single sheets of graphite ), and fullerenes ( where the carbon atoms are bonded together in spherical, tubular, or ellipsoidal formations ).

Most parts of Dewangen and Fachsenfeld are founded on formations of Jurensismergel ( Jurensis Marl ), Posidonienschiefer ( cf.

Several of these formations are still active, though they now are armoured formations, for example Guides Cavalry in Pakistan.

Handheld crossbows with complex bronze trigger mechanisms have also been found with the Terracotta Army in the tomb of Qin Shihuang ( r. 221 – 210 BC ) that are similar to specimens from the subsequent Han Dynasty ( 202 BC – 220 AD ), while crossbowmen described in the Qin and Han Dynasty learned drill formations, some were even mounted as cavalry units, and Han Dynasty writers attributed the success of numerous battles against the Xiongnu to massed crossbow fire.
