DETERMINATION OF THE CHEMICAL AND MINERALOGICAL COMPOSITION OF TRACHIBASALTIC PORPHIRITE FROM THE GAVASAY FOR OBTAINING MINERAL FIBER

Abstract

The results of studies of the chemical and mineralogical compositions and the main characteristics for determining the suitability of trachybasaltic porphyrite from the Gavasay deposit of Uzbekistan for obtaining heat-insulating material, in particular mineral fiber, are presented. It has been established that this new deposit of igneous rock can be used as the main raw material component for the production of basalt fiber products, a widely demanded and modern material in the construction industry.
