Coal that is surfacemined is usually found in seams that range in size from 2 feet ( meter) to more than 100 feet (30 meters) thick. Some seams contain as much as 200,000 tons of coal in a single acre ( hectare). Normally, between 90 and 100 percent of this coal is recovered during surface mining operations.

Coal seams originate and are formed by the consolidation of biota, minerals, and natural chemicals through geologic time. Compression, heat, sedimentation, erosion, and chemical energy are agents of the coal formation process. Multiple coal seams can exist in a reserve, with each coal seam separated by sedimentary rock interburden.

Coal beds consist of altered plant remains. When forested swamps died, they sank below the water and began the process of coal formation. However, more than a heavy growth of vegetation is needed for the formation of coal. The debris must be buried, compressed and protected from erosion. Even though all the biological, geographic and

Coal may be characterized by considering the evolutional process that takes coal from its origin to its eventual use as a resource. The study of coal geology incorporates an understanding of coal formation, coal extraction and utilization, coal quality and environmental considerations, and coal as a source rock for liquid and gaseous hydrocarbons.

Fossil fuels are nonrenewable sources of energy formed from the organic matter of plants and microorganisms that lived millions of years ago. The natural resources that typically fall under this category are coal, oil (petroleum), and natural gas. This energy (and CO 2) was originally captured via photosynthesis by living organisms such as plants, algae, and photosynthetic bacteria.

All coals, regardless of whether they are caking or coking coals, leave a solid carbonaceous residue at the end of the carbonization process. Chars, if heattreated to extreme temperatures, ≥2500 °C, do not form graphite, while cokes do. That is, chars are nongraphitizable, while cokes are graphitizable [A]. Type.

Coalification, Gasification, and Gas Storage. Romeo M. Flores, in Coal and Coalbed Gas, 2014 Abstract. Coalification is caused by temperature and pressure inherent to burial and is enhanced by geologic time and tectonism. Coalification processes include dehydration, bituminization, debituminization, and graphitization, which involve chemical and physical changes of organic matter.
