When I was little I used to play in the dirt and I never actually thought about why dirt was the way it was. All I knew was to not eat it, but it turns out dirt is a little bit more interesting than I thought.
One type of dirt is called red dirt. It is red-colored and iron-rich, and you can find it in the central and southern areas of the United States, like in Oklahoma. Red dirt gets its color by the amount of proteins it has and it is also has a lot of iron. Some minerals in red dirt are magnesium, calcium, and potassium.
