Abstract

Sediments analyzed were taken from Е»elazny Most tailing dam, the biggest in Europe. Sediments were investigated by granulometric, mineralogical and chemical methods: microprobe analyses, fluorescence and spectrometric method as weel. Granulometric composition allowed us classify it as silty sands and sands. The carbonate and sulhate grains, illite and kaolinite were identified. Haevy minerals appeared in quantity less then 10\%. This fraction consists of chalcocite, chalkopiryte, marcasite, piryte, covellite and digenite. Concentration of Cu, Zn, Pb, Ag, Co and Ni was indicated using EDS and microprobe analyses.
