Which outcome results when high precipitation accelerates leaching in soils overlying mafic bedrock?

💡 Explanation

Laterization occurs because intense leaching removes silica, alkalis, and alkaline earths, concentrating insoluble iron and aluminum oxides forming bauxite. Therefore, bauxite deposits are created, rather than increased dissolution, permafrost, or a raised water table, which would involve different processes.
