In the light of flied sampling and laboratory analysis, soil nutrient of Picea crassifolia forest in the eastern Qilian Mountains was studied. The results showed that: (1) The mean contents of soil total nitrogen, total phosphorus, total potassium and organic matter were (0.29±0.01)%, (0.051±0.001)%, (1.990±0.019)% and (7.96±0.40%), respectively, and their spatial variabilities were all in the middle level. Meanwhile, single factor variance analysis of 10 samples showed that there were no significant differences of soil total nitrogen, total potassium and organic matter overall mean in different plots (F<F0.05), except the soil total phosphorus overall mean which is very significant (F<F0.01); (2) In the soil profile, along with the increase of soil depth, soil organic matter and soil total nitrogen content firstly increase and then decline;soil total phosphorus increase gradually, but there was little difference;soil total potassium content presents first increase and then decrease. In the profile, spatial variability of soil total potassium content is weak, but other nutrient variation belongs to the middle level; (3) Soil organic matter content and total nitrogen content of surface soil layer (0-10 cm) have a significantly positive correlation, organic matter content of the soil and soil total phosphorus have a significant positive correlation, but with no significant correlation in soil total potassium content.
