condition) indicate a relationship between salinity and mud elemental composition.
The organic matter content was low and slightly variable during yearly sampling.
Conclusions
This study showed the time-dependant transformation/changes of organic and
inorganic fraction of mud sampled in the crystallization basin. The physicochemical
characteristics of clay, geochemistry of the mineral water, procedure of
mixing/remixing each other and lasting time procedure5 impact the »maturation«
processes of peloids so these results are needed and will be used for the establishment
of controlled production of peloid muds in Secovlje Salina
