During drainage, reddish weathered sediments can be observed at the bottom of Nanatsu-ike Pond in Higashihiroshima City, Hiroshima Prefecture. Four columnar samples of this reservoir-bottom sediment were collected. Each columnar sample was subjected to facies, pH, redox potential measurement, color measurement, and detailed observation of the red part. The results showed the following: (1) most weathered layers were located above the sand layer and in the zone of groundwater-surface fluctuation; (2) for the model of the reddening mechanism, the process of diffusion-supply in the pore water of the sand layer could be applied, but it was necessary to consider the involvement of microorganisms such as sulfate-reducing bacteria and iron-oxidizing bacteria in addition to the inorganic redox reaction; and (3) among the color data, chroma was found to be a useful indicator of the progress of chemical weathering (iron oxide formation). Based on these results, the potential of the Nanatsu-ike Pond sediments for geoscience educational materials is discussed.
