The world's largest coal field in terms of storage capacity

Oil and coal are also important strategic resources in today's development. Even though people have found that the use of these resources has a relatively large harm to the human environment, but because of the delay in finding a new resource to replace them, people have adopted a mode of purification. Today we want to introduce the world's storage capacity of a relatively large amount of coal fields, its coal seams up to 1 km thick, the storage capacity of more than 300 billion tons of coal, take a look at where it is?

The world's largest coal field in terms of reserves


The Appalachian coal field is located in the Appalachian Mountains in the United States.The coal mines in this one mountain range are very surprising to everyone because it has a very large reserve and is very beneficial for the overall development afterwards. Since it is formed along this mountain range, the overall reserve of this coal field is calculated according to the length.

Because it is a mountain range terrain, so its topography is relatively high, absorbing more light, in the long past development process has formed a large number of coal can be mined, the length of 3200 meters is very long, and on the detection seems to be here the number of coal length of about 1200 meters, which is not only its long, its width and thickness is also more.

The Appalachian coal field covers a total area of 180,000 square kilometers and is located in nine states in the U.S. It has a total storage capacity of 300 billion tons, such an overall development also makes everyone more curious about this coal mine, and in addition to its large silver content, its mining is also very simple, this piece of coal mining can be completely open-pit mining, without digging underground.

This open-pit mining both eases the process of opening up the coal for it and opens up more possibilities for transportation here. The coal content has now begun to decline very significantly, while this field contains 27.6% of the world's coal, and such a coal deposit also gives the United States some more opportunities for growth.
