Popis: This study discusses the feasibility of using the mud of hypersaline lakes in the socio-economic development of the region. This paper defines the factors of the lake ecosystem affecting mud-forming processes. This paper defines the therapeutic properties of the lake sulfide mud and evaluates the economic efficiency of mud resource use in balneotherapy. This paper aims to study the hydrobiological features of salt lakes that form therapeutic mud and its use for balneotherapeutic purposes. The assessment of the salt lake resource potential is based on the materials of hydrobiological field studies, laboratory analyses, and the results of research conducted by medical institutions in the region. Data collection and analysis were conducted per GOST 31,86-2012 guidelines for collecting and processing materials for hydrobiological studies in freshwater reservoirs, and the guidelines for sanitary and microbiological analysis of therapeutic mud. The calculation of the economic efficiency of mud bath creation was performed on the basis of methodological recommendations for determining the economic efficiency of environmental protection measures in transport construction.
