Lately I have a great intrest in coal. It is everywhere here. Some seams are only a foot or so thick while others are 10 or more. I have been researching coal alot and I ran across coal balls. They are balls that can not be burned because for some reason they preserved plant or animal fossils. My...

Calcified fossils are also known. The best examples are, however, the coal balls. Goal balls (Figs. 504 505) are irregularly rounded masses ranging in diameter from a few millimetres to a metre. These occur often in great numbers within chunks of coal. Each ball is a mass of calcium and magnesium carbonate with, sometimes, iron sulphide.

The Mazon Creek region in Illinois, famous for its fernfossil concretions, is currently producing a number of coal balls. They are partly pyritized. Many mines produce such pyritized coal balls; they are useless for research as they cannot be properly "peeled" or sectioned. Coal balls can be appreciated only when they are examined under a ...

Coal balls often form in acidic peats, or when seawater permeates the compressed plant matter. The carbonate forms a hardened ball that resists compression throughout burial, thereby preserving the plant remains in exceptional detail; even cellular details can be retained. ... Calamites are commonly found stem fossils of the coal measures (Fig ...

Many coalball structures can be identified from paleobotany texts. Much specialized work has been done recently at the University of Illinois on such structures, especially of seeds. Workers there have published a number of papers illustrating coalball fossils. These are still available.

Coal balls. Definition and formation: Coal balls are calcareous masses of fossil peat found in coal beds. They are formed in the original peat before it undergoes coalification (DeMaris and others, 1983; Scott and others, 1996). Individual coal balls can be inches to many feet in diameter, and coalball clusters may occupy a small part ...

A modification of this technique was published in 1956 [Joy et al. ; see also Galtier and Phillips ] that affected how coalball plants were studied and, at the same time, may have decreased the number of discoveries of fossil fungi in coal balls. In this modification, preformed sheets of cellulose acetate were used to make peels.

TVA met its goal of retiring the Bull Run Fossil Plant by Dec. 1, 2023, and said the plant "finished strong" with a 48day continuous run to burn its last remaining coal.

In the final set of tests using coal balls, larger coal balls did preserve larger plant fossils, whether periderm or another organ (R 2 = ) (Fig. 8). This limitation imposed by coal ball size was also demonstrated by the largest plant fragment being truncated by the edge of the coal ball in 62 of 66 specimens. The greatest dimension of ...
