Abstract: The paper presents the results of the detailed geological and laboratory investigations carried out on the ceramic clays of the rice valleys in the surroundings of the town of Vinica. The surface of the deposit is covered by a humus layer of variable size amounting from 0 to 0.30 meters. Beneath the humus cover there is a 0.30 to 1 meter thick productive layer consisting of good quality deluvial, mainly fine-grained pure plastic clays. The total reserves of 99.520 tons of fine grained granulometric and mineral composition. A category ilite-chlorite clays containing large amounts of high quality quartz and feldspar make it possible to use the clay in the production of coarse ceramic products and roof tiles by the Tondah - Proleter company in Vinica
