Abstract: Evaluation the prospects of Luhansk region’s coal mines dumps using in the building materials production by the radiation factors was performed in the paper. The work has carried out an assessment of the prospects for the use of dump rocks in the construction industry from radiation indicators. The specific effective activity of natural radionuclides in the five coal mines waste dumps of Luhansk region was determined by the gamma-spectrometric analysis. Was shown the waste rock can be used without restrictions in residential construction with such radiation characteristics. The laboratory method of de-termination the radon emanation coefficient in the rocks and materials was described. It allows estimating accurately the radon entry rate into the premises from walling materials at the design stage of a construction. Application of industrial mineral wastes – it one of ways of increase of efficiency of production of building materials and improvement of quality of environment.

Keywords: waste rock, uranium, radionuclides, radon, building materials, specific effective activity.
