Petrographic, chemical and physical characteristics of coal from the coal basin of the deposit 'Ugljevik East-Phase II'

Abstract

Ugljevik Basin is an important energy resource of the Republic Srpska and base for operation the power plant Ugljevik. Level of exploration the Ugljevik Basin, Mining District Bogutovo Selo, at the far NE slopes of the mountain Majevica and a part of the South Mining District of the deposit Bogutovo Selo, the area 'Jablan', are completely geologically explored, and geological explorations are continued in the area of coal deposit Ugljevik-East. This work presents the results of petrographic, chemical and physical characteristics of coal samples from the deposit 'Ugljevik East-Phase II.' Testing of coal samples showed the heterogeneous composition (lithotypes, mikrolithotypes, macerai), and varying degrees of carbonization as well as physical-chemical characteristics of coal (technical and silicate analysis).
