Abstract

The investigation of gypsum (calcium sulphate dihydrate), obtained in course of serpentinite processing, is performed. It is shown that the product is characterized by high ecological purity and meets the demands of the All-Union State Standard (GOST) to the 1st-rate gypsum. The gypsum binder made of the gypsum obtained from serpentinite corresponds to rapidly and normally hardening grades G-2
