A method of extracting gas from the gas shale deposit by the partial combustion of hydrocarbons in the deposit in air, characterized in that the gas extraction process is carried out with the use of a pipeline (3) through which a flammable material is provided, it is lit up, resulting in the ignition of the gas shale deposit (2), and then the process of controlling the amount of air, used for the partial combustion of hydrocarbons in a shale gas deposit, and for discharging gas from the gas shale deposit (2) to the surface of the earth or the supply shaft, supplied to the pipeline (3), begins, the amount of air supplied through the pipeline (3) to the gas shale deposit (2) being adjusted so as to ensure the conversion of hydrocarbons in the solid state into the liquid and gaseous state, and hydrocarbons in the liquid state into a gaseous state.
