Some properties of zeolites for the preservation of biocenosis

According to the obtained results, five samples of native zeolite from a mining quarry, Drozhzhanovsky district, Republic of Tatarstan, Russia had neither pathogenic nor saprophytic fungi when plated on Saburo agar with dextrose. Zeolites prolongated the action of mineral fertilizers, increasing the effectiveness of the latter. The content of calcium in the chemical composition of the zeolite-containing rock created favorable conditions for improving the reaction of the soil environment, for the active mobilization of soil phosphates into accessible forms. Silicon which in the composition of zeolites, improved plants nutrition with phosphorus and potassium. Due to the safe and beneficial properties of zeolite, this agro mineral can be used to restore soil fertility. This research will be continued.
