Abstract: Fe, Mn, Co, Pb, Zn, Cu and Hg contents of the soils along the coast between Akçaabat and Yomra are measuredand interpreted in this study. The elements exept Hg were determined by flame AAS. Mercury was analyzed by cold vaporization technique. All the elements but Hg show local anomalous areas. The detection limit ofHgfor the analyticalmethod employed is 0,005 ppm. Any anomalous areas ofHg are not a::, led in the soils of `study areas. The analysedelements snow following concentrations as Fe 8%; Mn 1%; Cu 100 ppm; Pb 250 ppm, Co 150 ppm, Zn 170 ppm andHg <0.005 ppm.
