Paleodepositional environment and source rock potential of Paleogene lignite and shale horizons in the Saurashtra Basin, Western India

Paleodepositional environment and source rock potential of Paleogene lignite and shale horizons in the Saurashtra Basin, Western India

Abstract Coal is formed from ancient plants through biochemical and physicochemical stages. Lignite gives a low amount of energy compared to higher rank coal. The Eocene Khadsaliya Formation lignite (Surkha mine) and shale (Khadsaliya mine) sediments were collected to investigate their evolution, ma...
