Inta coal (Pechora Basin)
Komi Republic, Pechora Basin, Russia
Othercharbon (Hg)
- Type
- Coal deposit (subbituminous B coal, Pennsylvanian)
Subbituminous B coal seam of Pennsylvanian age, calorific content of 10,317 Btu; mercury with a mean δ202Hg of -1.71 ‰ and Δ201Hg of -0.27 ‰ (Biswas et al., 2008). Non-homogenised sample (VTI); the table gives a Pennsylvanian age, whereas the coal beds of the Pechora Basin are Permian. Indicative coordinates (Inta town).
