 abstract={A tendency to substitute basalts by gabbros for the production of rock wool is being currently observed. Gabbro studied of Braszowice deposit represents an olivine-free variety. Its main mineral components (plagioclases, clinopyroxenes and secondary amphiboles) occur in variable proportions. The investigations completed have shown that the glasses produced out of this rock, both unmodified and modified with addition of dolomite from Rędziny, are characterized by a relatively low crystallization ability. The glasses in question, annealed at temperatures up to 800-850°C do not recrystallize, which is a favourable feature for the production of rock wool.},
