We are told that coal was formed from vegetative material . Fossil 
plants found within the coal are of a nature found today in the Tropics. 
If vegetative materials could accumulate millions of years ago, it is 
reasonable to think that they could also accumulate thousands of years ago.

That is why I feel there are naturally occurring Black Earth Soils in 
the Amazon.

Best wishes,
