In the current rock or soil classification schemes, lots of fuzzy zones are caused among various rock or soil types due to the fragmentation of classification standards. The general classification of rock and soil should be based on the basic material composition: solid, liquid and gas. Normally, the combination scheme of special components, grain size, porosity and degree of saturation can be adopted. In this paper, special components include organic matter and special minerals which include lamellar minerals represented by montmorillonite, soluble salts and carbonate minerals. The general cl...
