The features of the distribution of toxic elements in the c1 coal seam of «Blahodatna» mine field are considered. The research aims to establish regularities in the distribution of toxic elements in the coal seam c1 of Blahodatna mine of Pavlohrad-Petropavlivka geological and industrial area of Donbas. Samples were taken from mine opening (reservoir samples, selected by the trench method and from duplicates of drill core personally). Content of toxic elements was determined by quantitative emissive spectrum analysis. The values of the main descriptive statistical indicators were calculated. With the aim of identify the composition of the geochemical associations, correlation coefficients (r) were calculated between the content of the toxic elements. In a single geochemical association united elements in which the relationship between the content is described by the correlation coefficient that exceeds 0,5, with a significance level of at least 95%. As a result of the performed studies, maps of the isoconcentrate of toxic elements and maps of the regional constituent of their contents by the area of the mine field were constructed. Linear regression equations are calculated between the concentrations of toxic elements and the main technological parameters of coal. Analyzing the result of statistical processing of geochemical information and geological and structural characteristics of the coal seam c1 of «Blahodatna» mine field allowed us to establish, that the formation of the association of cobalt, nickel, vanadium, lead, chrome and manganese is associated with the enrichment of contact zones of the coal seam by these elements and is genetically is due to influence of adsorption and reductive-oxidative barriers on the migration of matter during the diagenesis and catagenesis of coal-bearing series. The main scientific importance of the results of the performed studies is the establishment of genetic causes that have a significant effect on the distribution of toxic elements in coal seam of c1.
