The research results of gross chemical composition of peat soils and pyrogenic formations are shown. It was established that oxides of silicon, calcium, iron, aluminium and others are dominated in mineral composition of the ash peat soils. Change in gross chemical composition of peat horizons within the profile depending on soil-forming rocks is shown. It is characterized the chemical composition of genetic horizons of pyrogenic modified peat soils and changes during the first years of postpirogenic period. Key words: gross chemical composition, peat soils, pyrogenic modified peat soils, loss on ignition, chemical components of mineral soil.
