The article presents the results of complex studies of physical and chemical properties, such as sieve analysis, elemental and microstructural analysis, IR spectral analysis, and X-ray phase analysis. The results of the research allow concluding that coal mining waste is a valuable secondary raw material for the production of new multipurpose materials in the chemical and construction industries. Data obtained by scanning electron microscopy revealed the elemental composition of coal mining waste. As it turned out, the composition of the waste is dominated by carbon, silicon and iron. In addition, there are microelements in the form of magnesium, sulfur, and aluminum. All the data obtained will be used for the synthesis of humate-containing substances.
