Zusammenfassung:Clay minerals are a key factor in mineral soils as they are controlling physic, chemical and biological soil properties. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis has been widely used to identify and quantify minerals in earth science The aim of this research is to describe the clay minerals in soils of Europe and United Kingdom by using soil samples from the Land Use/Cover Area Frame Survey (LUCAS) topsoil database sampled in 2015. A subset of 388 soil samples were selected from LUCAS 2015 topsoil survey. The clay fraction (
