They mention that solids are stored in a sort of liquid suspension. Why is that? I feel like a solid, airtight box (like a shipping ocntainer) 100% full of sand

- hermitdev 8y agoEver moved a large pile of sand that's been stored outside? Once you get a foot or so into it, there's going to be some moisture. It's not going to be much by weight, but it's there. Of course, it's going to vary depending upon environmental factors (humidity, temperature how recently it rained, etc). That contributes partially to the liquefaction.
