Abstract

This article presents the results of a comprehensive study of natural sulfide mud extracted from the salt lake Maraldy, located in the Pavlodar region. The main purpose of the work is to study the organic component of mud, which has not been studied deeply enough at the moment. The study identified factors contributing to the accumulation of organic matter in the mud. In addition, the article presents the results of the interpretation of infrared (IR) spectra obtained during the study. The data obtained allow for a more complete understanding of the organic nature of mud and its unique qualities, which makes it a potential object for further study of its organic origin and medicinal properties.
