Sean,

Your almost there.    Let me spell it out a little more.

What if chemical conditions are such in TP soils, that low temperature carbonization of some of the natural organic matter / biomass is occurring?

  Hi Greg,

  I see your point.  When TP soil is mined and it grows back on the site, how does it do this without the addition of more charcoal?
  This makes me wonder again, further, about what happens to TP soil that is mined and moved off the original site and out of that continuously feeding environment.  Does that exported TP soil grow?

  Regards,

  SKB
