      ABSTRACT
      Purpose. The research purpose is to study the change in the qualitative composition of granite before and after blasting operations to determine its compliance with the criteria of marketable products.
      Methods. X-ray phase and X-ray structural research methods are used to study changes in the mineral composition of granites before and after blasting operations. To separate magnetic and non-magnetic fractions of the selected granite samples, a three-roller RST magnetic separator is used. X-ray phase research is conducted using a DRON-3 diffractometer. Additionally, an analysis of the unit cell dimensions of the quartz crystal lattice was conducted, and the dislocation density along the corresponding crystallographic planes was studied.
      Findings. It has been determined that after blasting operations, granite mass is redistributed from coarse fractions of 1-20 mm to small fractions of 0-1 mm with an increase in the latter by 4.2%. It has been found that the biotite content decrea-ses naturally and consistently, and the quartz content increases correspondingly in products in the following series: magnetic separator drum (90%, 2%) → lower roller (72%, 14%) → upper roller (55%, 31%) → non-magnetic product (48%, 34%) before blasting operations. Therefore, despite significant differences in the magnetic favorability of these two mineral phases, they are present in all magnetic separation products (with the exception of quartz in the non-magnetic product): magnetic separator drum → lower roller → upper roller.
      Originality. It has been established that along the crystallographic directions 101 and 211, the maximum gradient of dislocation density increase in the quartz crystal lattice in granite samples before blasting operations is observed during the transition from the lower roller product to the upper roller product, amounting to 1.55·1010 and 6.63·1010 cm-2, respectively. After blasting operations, in granite samples along the same directions, the maximum gradient of dislocation density increase is observed between the upper roller product and the non-magnetic product, amounting to 3.01·1010 and 4.67·1010cm-2. As a result of the thermodynamic impact of blasting operations, the weighted average dislocation density value along crystallographic planes 101 and 211 in the quartz crystal lattice increases by 47.21 and 25.72%, respectively.
      Practical implications. Understanding the quality characteristics of marketable products after blasting operations will contribute to optimizing the stages of further processing of non-metallic mineral raw materials (two-, three- or four-stage crushing) and expanding the scope of granite applications. This increases its competitiveness in the building materials market by reducing the costs for additional processing with a reduction in the labor intensity of the process.
