This work was undertaken on 10 profiles representing cultivated and virgin soils adjacent to EL-Salam canal. The results reveal that these soils are clay textur ed, highly saline to extremely saline, with Na+ and CI- being the most predominant among soluble ions. The soil reaction class was neutral to mildy alkaline and the soils were non- calcareous. The total and chemically extractable Cu, Zn, Fe, Mn, Cd and Co varied widely within and between soil profiles. Computation of the weighted means of the trace and heavy metals showed different levels of abundance of such metals.
