[ES]Como continuación de estudios anteriores sobre arcillas de suelos forestales del centro-oeste de España, se estudia la mineralogía y génesis de la fracción arcilla de 18 perfiles de la zona noroeste de la Región Castellano-Leonesa. Dicha fracción tiene como componente mayoritario ilita, frecuentemente degradada en parte a intergrados mica-vermiculita-clorita o mica-vermiculita-esmectita, junto a caolinita en proporciones medias o bajas, gibsita y goetita. El estudio de los resultados pone de manifiesto la influencia del tipo de humus en el proceso de degradación de los minerales micáceos, que evolucionan a vermiculita hidroxialuminosa en medio ácido y ausencia de radicales complejantes en la solución del suelo, y a vermiculita, llegando en algunos caos a "esmectita de transformación" cuando una solución rica en radicales capaces de complejar el aluminio "limpia" de este elemento la capa interlaminar. Gibsita y caolinita, que aumentan en los horizontes profundos, se formarán en parte por precipitación y/o silificación del hidróxido de aluminio formado a partir del aluminio liberado de los minerales primarios.
[EN]The mineralogy and genesis of the clay fraction of 18 profiles of the North-Western zone of the Castilla-León Región, have been studied as a continuation of our earlier studies on forest soil clays. Illite forms the predominant component of the clay fraction, part of which is normally found degraded to Mica-Vermiculite-Chlorite or Mica-Vermiculite-Smectite, intergrades. Kaolinite (in medium to low quantities), Gibbsite and Goethite are the other components which make up the clay fraction. The results also indicate that the type of humus influences the process of degradation of micaceous minerals. These minerals in acid medium and in the absence of complex-forming radicals in the soil solution, change into aluminium-hydroxi-vermiculite, while in the presence of complex-forming minerals, undergo degradation, forming Vermiculite or in certain cases "Smectite of transformation". The quantity of Gibbsite and Kaolinite fractions increase with depth of soil profile and are formed by precipitation and/or silica fixation by aluminium hydroxide. This aluminium originates from primary mineral dissolution.
