a ___________ __________________. • Those sediments will then form into

remains of plants that lived and died about _____ to _____ million years ago when parts of the earth were covered with huge _______ forests. Coal is classified as a ______________ energy source because it takes _________ of years to form.

What is Coal?

• Coal:– A sedimentary rock _______________________– Mineralized _______________________material

deposited over a long period of time (although miniscule geologically)

– altered chemical composition – Formed by increased T and P – Partial decay resulting from restricted

access to oxygen

________________________?

• Peat ≠ coal, but is the _______________stage in coal formation

• A dark colored, brown to black,____________

substance formed from partial ____________ of marsh vegetation by moisture and bacteria

_______________of Coal formation• ____________________________ peat lands

• Upper delta and alluvial plain swamps• ________________________________• Bogs• Limnic environments

Coal FormationCoal Formation• Sediment burial, subsidence of peat

bogs– Completely cuts off contact with

– Overburden: compaction and subsidence

– Increase pressure, temperature
