A brownish-black coal of low quality (i e , low heat content per unit) with high inherent moisture and volatile matter (used almost exclusively for electric power generation) It is also referred to as brown coal
A low-grade, brownish-black coal
High moisture coal, also called brown coal
{i} soft dark brown coal
Usually a dark brown substance that is the lowest rank of coal
A soft, brownish coal that develops from peat through bacterial action, is rich in kerogen, and has a carbon content of 70%, which makes it a more efficient heating fuel than peat
(see below) The type of coal that first develops when peat (see below) is compacted Lignite is high in water and low in carbon and sulfur, and so gives off less heat than do longer-compacted (called “harder”) types of coal Lignite is the type of coal Lewis and Clark saw
"young" coal with high water content, low heating values, and typically many impurities
A brownish blackish coal of low rank with high inherent moisture and volatile matter It is also referred to as "brown coal"
It is of more recent origin than the anthracite and bituminous coal of the proper coal series
Low grade coal Also called brown coal
Lignite is a young coal It is brownish-black in color and has a high moisture content, sometimes as high as 45 percent, and a high ash content It tends to disintegrate when exposed to the weather
A brownish-black coal of low rank with high inherent moisture and volatile matter content, used almost exclusively for electric power generation Also referred to as brown coal
A solid fuel of a grade higher than peat but lower than bituminous coal
Mineral coal retaining the texture of the wood from which it was formed, and burning with an empyreumatic odor
intermediate between peat and bituminous coal
A young coal used almost exclusively for electric power generation It is brownish black in color and has a high moisture content, sometimes as high as 45 percent, and a high ash content It tends to disintegrate when exposed to the weather Also referred to as brown coal
brown fibrous coal with a relatively low carbon content limestone sedimentary rock composed chiefly of calcium carbonate CaC03, formed from the shells of tiny marine organisms millions of years ago Limestone is permeable and dissolves gradually in the als in the limestone by weakly acidic rainwater linear development or ribbon development housing that has grown up along a route such as a road Many settlements show this ribbonshaped pattern, since roads offer improved access to the central business district and other areas Other types of settlement pattern are dispersed settlements and nucleated settlements liquefaction the conversion of a soft deposit, such as clay, to a jelly like state by severe shaking During an earthquake buildings and lines of communication built on materials prone to liquefaction will sink and topple
A low-grade brownish coal of relatively poor heat-generating capacity
A low-rank coal with a relatively high moisture and relatively low heat/energy content
a soft substance like coal, used as fuel (lignum ). Yellow to dark brown, rarely black, coal that has been formed from peat under moderate pressure; it is one of the first products of coalification and is intermediate between peat and subbituminous coal. Dry lignite contains about 60-70% carbon. Almost half of the world's total coal reserves contain lignite and subbituminous coal, but lignite has not been exploited to any great extent because lignite is inferior to higher-rank coals (e.g., bituminous coal) in heating value, ease of handling, and storage stability. In some areas, however, the scarcity of fuel has led to extensive developments
Called also brown coal, wood coal
One of the lower ranks of coal that contains recognizable fragments of plant material Lignite has a relatively low carbon content and heating value
