The article examines the chemical mineral composition, the formation of crystalline phases of minerals, the basic properties of ceramic masses with igneous rocks and the formation of minerals during the sintering process in the temperature range 950-1150°C. The results obtained indicate that the introduction of iron-containing basalts stabilizes the structure of ceramic slabs and reduces their sintering temperature. According to geological data, kaolins from the Republic of Karakalpakstan are promising for use.
