Sulfate attack and its effects are important from both scientific and industrial viewpoints. It is perceived that cements containing pozzolan have better performance in sulfate solutions, since the pozzolanic reactions reduce the quantity of calcium hydroxide and increase calcium silicate hydrate. This paper investigates the physical and mechanical properties of concretes made by blended cement containing Algerian natural pozzolan of volcanic origin, and Portland cement. In order to better determine the pozzolanic effect of the pozzolan addition in the concrete, the analysis of the experimental results of the effect of the partial replacement of the cement by the natural pozzolan showed that it contributes positively to the improvement of its mechanical characteristics, its durability with respect to the permeability to the chlorine ions, the ultrasonic pulse velocity, the compressive strength as well as the sulphate resistance. The present study confirms the pozzolanic reactivity of the natural pozzolan used
