Summary Cross polarisation 13 C‐n.m.r. spectra of seven New Zealand soils have been determined. Some of the soils are genetically related. The results show that the aromaticity of a soil may vary widely from soil to soil even when the parent material and vegetation are similar. The youngest of the soils examined (Hokitika, 300 years), was highly aromatic, and the oldest soil (Okarito, 22,000 years) was more aliphatic.
