Purpose. The research purpose is to increase the efficiency of borehole uranium mining by selecting special decolmating solutions and rational parameters of the technology for influencing the seam near-filter zone of geotechnological boreholes, as well as improving the filtration characteristics of the seam, depending on the mineralogical composition of ores and the structure of sediment-forming materials. Methods. The method of X-ray phase analysis was used to study the powders. The core material samples were studied on transparent sections using a LEICA DM 2500 P microscope. The content of the elemental composition of the ores and host rocks in the samples of the productive horizon was controlled using an atomic emission spectrometer. Findings. Based on the research results, quantitative-qualitative characteristics of the host rocks in the productive horizon, sedimentary formations from technological boreholes have been determined, revealing various levels in the productive horizon. It has been found that in the Campanian horizon boreholes, ores have a complex structure and multicomponent sedimentary formations, representing a mixture of sediments of mechanical-chemical origin. Originality. The results of quantitative-qualitative, microscopic, thermal research methods of the characteristics of ore-bearing rocks from various horizons at the Syr Darya depression uranium deposit have been studied and comparatively analyzed. The sedimentary formations of technological boreholes in the productive Santonian, Maastrichtian, Campanian horizons of the Northern Kharasan field, Syr Darya depression, have also been sampled and studied. The choice of the most appropriate composition of chemical reagents for dissolution and prevention of sedimentary formation in porous media has been substan-tiated by the microscopic research method. Practical implications. A detailed study and comparative analysis of the characteristics of ores and host rocks in various productive horizons makes it possible to more accurately plan the mining of blocks, minimizing emerging risks. Using the developed combined technology for intensifying borehole uranium mining, it is possible to increase the efficiency of borehole uranium mining and reduce its operating costs. At the same time, the ecological and industrial safety of the work of intensi-fying the leaching uranium ores increases.
