The coal-bearing strata of Longdong mine field in Xingtai is the Carboniferous-Permian. The No.8 coal seam is located in the Taiyuan formation and is the main minable coal-bed. The coal is mainly gas-fat coal accompanied with coking coal, lean coal and anthracite. The results of the macroanalysis and maceral quantitative analysis on the main minable coal-bed show that the degree of coal metamorphism takes the old town as the center and is distributed concentrically outward and the anthracite and lean coal are distributed nearby the old town, and the coal gradually becomes coking coal, gas-fat coal and gas coal further outwards. The degree of coal metamorphism was affected by regional metamorphism, and the coal seams which are close to the old town stack the regional magmatic thermal metamorphism. The conclusions of the research offer a scientific foundation to exploit the coal resource in this area?
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
