Probably there is some dependence on mycorrhizae and beneficial soil bacteria.
I don't know if any of the soil micro-organism mixes that are available here have relevant species.
Possibly there is a need for traces of Cobalt, Nickel, Selenium, Aluminum.... Northeastern Brazil used-to adjoin central-western Africa, where many soils are rich in heavy metals. I haven't seen any info about comprehensive soil testing in the cerrado.
