Parent material. Parent material is the underlying geological material (generally bedrock or a superficial or drift deposit) in which soil horizons form.
Parent material is classified by its last means of transport. Material that was transported to a location by glacier, then deposited elsewhere by streams, is classified as stream-transported parent material, or glacial fluvial parent material.cean deposited parent materials, called marine sediments, are collections of material that have been carried by rivers and streams to the ocean and eventually sink to the bottom.
