to chyba po prostu glina --> follow http://62.1911encyclopedia.org/B/BO/BOULDER_CLAY.htm
"Boulder clay is variously known as till or ground moraine (Ger. Blocklehme, Geschiebsmergel or Grundmorane; Fr. argile a blocc1ux, moraine profonde; Swed. Krosstenslera). It is usually a stiff, tough clay devoid of stratification; though some varieties are distinctly laminated. Occasionally, within the boulder clay, there are irregular lenticular masses of more or less stratified sand, gravel or loam."

Comment: "Nie jest to wyłącznie glina, lecz warstwa, w której warstwowo występują m.in. żwir i głazy (stąd ten "bruk")"
