Sažetak

This paper presents results of a study conducted to provide detailed characterization of fine-grained fraction in the selected surface sediment sampled along the eastern Adriatic Sea. The
studied fraction was dominated by silt-sized material and composed of carbonate particles (both of biogenic and terrigenous origin), biogenic silica and terrigenous siliciclastic particles. Both components, biogenic and terrigenous were deposited in recent and sub recent conditions. The knowledge about mineral and granulometric composition and the origin of fine-grained particles is essential for understanding sedimentological processes. The obvious complex composition of the fine-grained fraction should be taken into account when environmental studies are to be carried out.
