"Densic material" means relatively unaltered materials (do
				  not meet requirements for any other named diagnostic horizons nor any other
				  diagnostic soil characteristic) that have a noncemented rupture resistance
				  class. The bulk density or the organization is such that roots cannot enter,
				  except in cracks. These are mostly earthy materials, such as till, volcanic
				  mudflows, and some mechanically compacted materials. Some noncemented rock can
				  be densic materials if they are dense or resistant enough to keep roots from
				  entering, except in cracks. Densic materials are noncemented and thus differ
				  from paralithic materials and the material below a lithic contact, both of
				  which are cemented. Densic materials have, at their upper boundary, a densic
				  contact if they have no cracks or if the spacing of cracks that roots can enter
				  is ten (10) centimeters (cm) or more. These materials can be used to
				  differentiate soil series if the materials are within the series control
				  section.
