Abstract

Historically Donbas basin area is subdivided into five groups according to the coal industry location: Old, Western, Northern, Eastern, and Southern Donbas. Old Donbas covers basic groups of geological and industrial coal areas. Intense coal mining within this area was accompanied by a number of operations to have thorough study of coal quality and composition as well as to substantiate their efficient industrial use. Northern Donbas and partially Western Donbas are the least studied areas. In accordance with the existing fuel and energy balance of Ukraine and trends of development of the coal resources of the country, an important task is the rational use of existing stocks of coal. The article provided a detailed petrographic and petrogenetic characteristics of the coal seams suite C14 from the Donetsk basin. Suite C14 is different from the lower deposits more pronounced marine character of the sediments. Its power reaches up to 810 m, decreasing to the North-West to 609-590 M. In the world to 29 coal seams and layers of which the industrial importance only layers d4 and d3. In the small separated areas of the field, Coal seams d41, d61 and d81 reach operating power. Study of petrographic composition of coal suite C14 was held. Peculiarities of chemical composition and coal quality of Krutoyarovka and Krasnoarmeyskaya areas have been described. Stratigraphic and lateral regularities of variations in petrographic composition of coal seams d were established. It was found, that the area of distribution of all the formations, from the South-West to North-East, is a natural decrease in the number macular group of inertinite and liptinite. It was determined that coal from the lower Carboniferous of Donbas layers are characterized by high content of vitrinite group, and a low content of a group of liptinite. The upper group of layers differs from coal in the middle Carboniferous by high content group of inertinite, and the coal of the lower group of layers of the high content group of liptinite, which corresponds to the petrographic composition of middle Carboniferous coal, but differs from it by a high degree of primary oxidation. On the territory of Ukraine, the coal seams of the Buzhanskiy suite of the Lviv-Volynsk basin are analogues of the coal seam d61, d8 і d81, according to the petrographic composition.Keywords: coal, petrographic composition, maceral, coalification, vitrinit, inertinite, liptinite
