ASPECTS OF THE USE OF COAL MINING AND PROCESSING WASTE AS A CONSTRUCTION RAW MATERIAL

The article presents the prospects for processing coal mine waste rock as a raw material for the production of building materials. It is shown that the total sulfur content in all samples does not exceed 3.5 %, and the Al2O3 content reaches 22 %. The results of plasticity of various dispersed rock fractions prove the presence of lithified clays. The measurement of the specific effective activity of the selected samples and the emission coefficient do not exceed acceptable standards. The expediency of using coal mining and processing waste as raw materials for the production of building materials has been proved.
