| 2901 | WRC | Weathered rock - A type of regolith. It consists of weathered material which, depending on degree of disintegration, may be described in terms of rock material weathering grades II (slightly weathered), III (moderately weathered), IV (highly weathered), V (completely weathered), or VI (residual soil). In engineering geology terms, slightly to moderately weathered material falling into weathering grades II and III are considered as weathered rock for engineering purposes, and grades IV to VI as soil. Saprolite refers to soil-like grade IV and V material which has been altered and decomposed by chemical weathering processes.

| 2902 | WRCI | Weathered-grade I rock - A type of weathered rock. Fresh, no visible sign of rock material weathering. Perhaps slight discolouration on major discontinuity surfaces. British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/04, table 12. | R | Weathered-grade I rock | AWEL | 27-APR-00 | TMCM | 13-MAR-19 | Not Available | C | |||||
| 2903 | WRCII | Weathered-grade II rock - A type of weathered rock. Slightly weathered. Discolouration indicates weathering of rock material and discontinuity surfaces. All the rock material may be discoloured by weathering. British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/04, table 12. | R | Weathered-grade II rock | GRBA | 24-FEB-00 | TMCM | 13-MAR-19 | Not Available | C | |||||
| 2904 | WRCIII | Weathered-grade III rock - A type of weathered rock. Moderately weathered. Less than half of the rock material is decomposed or disintegrated to a soil. Fresh or discoloured rock is present either as a continuous framework or as corestones. British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/04, table 12. | R | Weathered-grade III rock | AWEL | 27-APR-00 | TMCM | 13-MAR-19 | Not Available | C | |||||
| 2905 | WRCIV | Weathered-grade IV rock - A type of weathered rock. Highly weathered. More than half of the rock material is decomposed or disintegrated to a soil. Fresh or discoloured rock is present either as a continuous framework or as corestones.
