Abstract :This study has been conducted on the samples obtained from soil horizons of two profiles representing alluvial and humic gley great soil groups of Düzce Plain. Some physical and biological properties of the samples were determined in field studies and their clay minerals were analysed. According to the clay analyses, clay minerals existed in humic gley soil horizons were determined as mixed layer (chlorite+vermiculite and montmorillonite+chlorite+vermiculite) and illite and those existed in alluvial soil horizons were determined as mixed layer (chlorite+ vermiculite) and illite.Keywords : DÜZCE, TOPRAK, KİL MİNERALOJİSİ
