Deposits of Kaustobiolites

Summary

A theory of the origin of kaustobiolite deposits. Coal formation, oil
formation and parameters of coalification and bituminisation. Physical and chemical properties of kaustobiolites, chemical-technological classification of brown and hard coal. The geology of coal deposits and its basic terms (primary and secondary structures, cyclic sedimentation, changes in coal matter, anomalous events in coal basins). The classification of coal basins and the environments of their origin (elements and the mode of deposit traps, types of deposit traps, underground storages). The geology of fossil fuels of the Czech
Republic. The geology of world deposits of fossil fuels. Reserves of fossil
fuels and prognoses of their development.
