The invention relates to an electrolytic manganese waste slag sintered building brick. The electrolytic manganese waste slag sintered building brick is prepared from the following main materials in parts by weight: 30-50 parts of electrolytic manganese waste slag, 5-20 parts of coal gangue, 5-20 parts of shale and 10-30 parts of clay. A preparation method comprises the following steps: preparing powder, burdening, stirring, then aging and further stirring. The step of preparing the powder is as follows: respectively performing powder beating on the coal gangue, the shale and the clay till the fineness of 1-5mm, preferably 2-3mm. Uniform stirring is performed after burdening, and the aging time is 24-96h; the stirring needs to be performed again after aging. By adopting the technical scheme, the electrolytic manganese waste slag can be treated in a large quantity, and the prepared porous brick has high hardness and good quality, and can comply with safety requirements in the aspects of radioactivity and toxicity as a building material; furthermore, the burdening is simple, the coal consumption during the sintering process is low, the powder beating quantity is small, the power consumption is low, the loss of equipment during the powder making process is reduced, and the prepared product has the characteristics of light weight, high hardness, low production cost and the like.
