The purpose of this work was studying of mineral structure of a grass of Ononis arvensis. The qualitative structure and the quantitative maintenance of mineral elements determined by a method of the issue spectral analysis. Samples of raw materials crushed, subjected to a combustion in the muffl e furnace at temperature 400–500 °С at air access within 2 hours. The received ashes after cooling weighed and analyzed on a spektrograf. Fotometrirovaniye of spectrograms was led by means of the atlas of spectral lines and ranges standards with a margin error by no more than 2 % in terms of ashes. According to the carried-out researches it is established that the element structure of an elevated part of Ononis arvensis includes 9 elements among which dominating according to the contents are potassium, magnesium, calcium, sodium, iron. The content of mineral substances in a grass Ononis arvensis made about 7372,48 mg %, of them macrocells 7335 mg %, microcells – 37,48 mg %. The obtained data allowed to reveal that the grass of Ononis arvensis contains signifi cant amounts and various combinations of the major mineral substances.
