Abstract. Destabilizing influence on salt content in the soils is one of the main negative effects of any coal mine operation. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a method for ecological restoration of saline soils in the coal-mining regions.

Advantages and disadvantages of the key methods of saline soils restoring are analyzed. List of phytomeliorants is presented for effective restoration of saline soils. Results of the greenhouse experiments on the saline soils sampled in the territories of intensive coal extraction are given. Quality and quantity of salt content in soil was analyzed before and after phytomelioration. Ability of phytomeliorants to influence a qualitative and quantitative composition of saline soil, humus content and pH reaction in the soil solution was evaluated. A technology is proposed for phytoremediation of the saline soils with use of annual and perennial plants.

Keywords: soil salinity, coal mining, phytoremediation.
