The chemical and mineralogical compositions of 80 selected samples of surficial sediments were studied mainly by X-ray powder diffraction and X-ray fluorescence. Changes in salinity along selected vertical profiles were studied together with the halite and gypsum distribution. Various types of the sediments were recognized and characterized. The factors influencing the surficial sediments origin and development were stated and some evolution models were suggested.
