The variable hydrologic conditions and amelioration of climate have had a great influence on the cementation process. However, the texture and composition of the cements detected in either the outwash or beach sediments do not exhibit high variability.
"The cementation process was a breakthrough as it produced much better and harder steel, and more of it," says Dr Webster.
This cementation process extends to a depth of 0.3mm to 0.5mm.
