Effect of peat mire evolution on pore structure characteristics in thick coal seam: Examples from Xishanyao Formation (Middle Jurassic), Yili Basin, China

The physical properties of thick coal seams show strong vertical heterogeneity; thus, an accurate characterization of their pore structure is essential for coalbed methane (CBM) exploration and production. A total of 18 coal samples, collected from a thick coal seam in the Yili Basin of NW China, we...
