Bleached sand refers to sandy soils where the color has been significantly lightened due to the removal of iron and other minerals, usually through leaching processes in wet climates. This often results in a pale or white color, which is an indicator of a soil's history of leaching, typically in areas with high rainfall or poor drainage. These soils may have low fertility and poor nutrient-holding capacity. Source: Brady, N. C., & Weil, R. R. (2008). The Nature and Properties of Soils (14th ed.). Pearson Prentice Hall.
