    Abstract:

    Oil shale presents an energy resource for the future. There are many occurrences of oil shale in the world such as in USA, Estonia, Jordan, Morocco, Australia, etc. All of those are of great economic importance in terms of alternative energy sources. Also, there is one great oil shale deposit in the Republic of Serbia near the town Aleksinac. The oil shale occurs in the Aleksinac coal mine basin, following the coal seams and spreads on 40 km2. The known reserves of oil shale in this deposit are estimated on 3,935,522,000 t with average oil contents from 9.5 to 12.5%. In this paper, the results on utilization of oil shale in cement industry directly and indirectly after burning them and after retorting them, i.e. in form of ash and in form of petrol coke will be presented.
