Weathering is defined as mechanical disintegration and chemical decomposition of rocks
21 through the actions of various elements of weather and climate.
3
Weathering aids mass wasting, erosion and reduction of
relief and changes in landforms are a consequence of
erosion. Weathering of rocks and deposits helps in the
enrichment and concentrations of certain valuable ores of
iron, manganese, aluminium, copper etc., which are of great
importance for the national economy. Weathering is an
important process in the formation of soils. (any other
