The mineralogy of the studied samples was investigated through X ray and the obtained geochemical characteristics were used to identify different littoral zones. This way, three main coastal sectors were obtained: the beach of M’diq, which sediments come from the metamorphic complex of Cabo Negro and are characterised by a high content in metals and Potassium; the beaches between Kabila and Marine Smir, that present high levels of carbonates (essentially shell fragments) and high content in Sr; and, the others beaches that contain sediments with intermediate levels of carbonatesspaAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 Españahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/BeachGeochemical plottersSedimentsMoroccojournal articleopen access
