This paper presents the results of leaching of Co, Cd, Cu, Mn, Ni and Zn ions from solid wastes in mine waters of various salinity. Determinations of the content of examined elements in mine waters and in solutions from leaching of solid mine wastes were carried out by atomic absorption spectroscopy, after preliminary extraction of elements in the form of pyrrolidinedithiocarbamates. To obtain complete characteristic of examined mine waters and solutions from leaching, standard analyses, commonly used for water and wastes, were done.
