Laterite is the correct answer.

Balvinder singh said:   6 years ago
In calcareous rock, lime is the main constituent and argillaceous rock have clay.

Viru Kapoor said:   7 years ago
Yes, laterite is an argilliceous rock.

Mounica said:   8 years ago
Maybe it's Marls (argillaceous limestone).

Sujeet said:   8 years ago
The mineralogical and chemical compositions of laterites are dependent on their parent rocks. Laterites consist mainly of quartz, zircon, and oxides of titanium, iron, tin, aluminium and manganese, which remain during the course of weathering.

What is Macl?

I am not satisfied with the answer because "clay" is also argillaceous rock.

Sujan said:   9 years ago
