This can be true. I have seen yellow soil. Sometimes the red soil becomes orange too. These changing soil color is merely affected by change of climate.

I think that colors are different per location...light soil is located close to water...like ocean and lakes....

That makes a lot of sense, the colors could be affected by the lake or oceans, just like the different color waters from the ocean.

I think if you go to Yellowstone National Park you can find yellow soil there. I did not know that there were 6 different colors. I have seen black, brown and red. I have not seen gray or white and I think I saw yellow at Yellowstone.
