The purpose of this study is to examine the basic properties of polyester mortars using a fine tailings (FT) from an abandoned mine as a filler. FT with sizes of 10–69 μm is obtained through the centrifugal separation of tailing (TA), and tested for such basic properties, as particle shape, fineness of size distribution, liquid resin absorption, and heavy metal leaching. Polyester mortars with FT and ground calcium carbonate (GC) are prepared with various filler-(filler + binder) ratios and replacements of GC with FT, and tested for working life, flexural and compressive strengths, and chemical corrosion resistance. As a result, FT has almost the same properties as GC in terms of particle shape, fineness of size and liquid resin absorption. The working life of polyester mortars is prolonged with an increased filler-(filler + binder) ratio and replacement of GC with FT. From the vantagepoint of the strength development of the polyester mortars with FT, it is recommended that the filler-(filler + binder) ratio and replacement of GC with FT should be controlled at 50% or less. Mass and strength changes are generally lower in mortars containing FT than in those containing GC in all chemical solutions.
