The data of the study of the concentrations of some metals (Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Pb, Zn) on the territory of the Sura-Sviyazhsky interfluve of the Volga Upland are presented. In the study area, the processes of accumulation of iron and copper are taking place. The maximum concentrations were registered in the illuvial horizon of the Prisursky GPP - 884 mg / kg. Iron is a typomorphic element for the studied area. In addition to accumulation processes, iron comes from parent rocks. Copper concentrations are also significant - up to 2.39 mg / kg, registered near the city of Alatyr.
