Coal balls may be concretionary as there name implies, but more commonly are irregular masses complexly interfingering with the surrounding coal. Coal balls may be inches to many feet in diameter and height, so will commonly look like a limestone bed in a narrow core. Coal balls tend to be brown in color and the coalball limestone includes ...

A coal ball is a type of concretion, varying in shape from an imperfect sphere to a flatlying, irregular slab. Coal balls were formed in Carboniferous Period swamps and mires, when peat was prevented from being turned into coal by the high amount of calcite surrounding the peat; the calcite caused it to be turned into stone instead.

liage found in coal balls. Petrifactions (coal balls) are an important source of information concerning the anatomical structure of both the laminate foliage and associated or connected frond members. Such specimens are commonly seen in sectional view. Petrified laminate foliage connected to rachides provides a means of establishing relationships

The geographic distribution of coal balls of China and their stratigraphic range are very wide. Fossil plants in coal balls are abundant Floras of coal balls of Jingyuan Gansu contain the same content as those of the Hauptfloz coal of Ruhr and the Kokfloz coal of Ostrau (Namur C) in Europe. Coal balls of Shanxi and Shandong (P1) are abundant and highly diversified with flourished Cathaysian ...

The coalball discovery helps fill a stratigraphic gap in coalball occurrences in the upper Carboniferous (Bolsovian) of Euramerica. The autochthonous and hypautochthonous coalballs have a similar mineralogical composition and are composed of siderite (81100%), dolomiteankerite (019%), minor quartz and illite, and trace amounts of 'calcite'.

Coal balls (exceptionally preserved calcareous permineralized peat), widely described from tropical Carboniferous Euramerian coal seams, have yielded diverse data on the biology, ontogeny and ecology of swamp plants and ecosystems. Probably over 75% of the swamp taxa may have been preserved, in contrast to probably less then 10% in other ...

Coal balls (mineralized peat) are common wherever marine rocks overlie the Herrin. They are generally composed of limestone partly replaced by pyrite. Isolated coal balls mostly are found near the top of the member. Large masses of coal balls up to 100 ft (30 m) across and replacing the entire height of the coal have been encountered in several ...

Directions. Mix crushed Oreo cookies and cream cheese in a large bowl until well blended. Use your hands to shape mixture into 48 (1inch) balls; place on a tray and freeze until thoroughly chilled, about 10 minutes. Line a shallow pan with waxed paper. Dip Oreo balls in melted chocolate; place in a single layer on the prepared pan.

Upon oxidization, most of the structures are lost. This is called "pyrite disease" in fossils and is characterized by a moldlike appearance on the cut surface of the coal ball. To prevent destruction, the surface can be coated with a sealant. Coal balls can also be stored in an lowoxygen medium like glycerin or antifreeze.

Coalballs are nodulelike rocks native to coal seams that contain mineralized plant organs or tissues (Zodrow et al., 1996), and are used for studies on coalforming plant species, structural morphology, and coalforming environments (Hilton et al., 2001, Wang et al., 2002, Zhou et al., 2004 ).

"Coal balls perfectly preserve a window into what plants used to be like 300 million years ago.'' The plant life of that age would have resembled alien forests today, Punyasena said. Today's sporebearing plants are tiny, such as ferns, but back then they were as large as trees. The plants and surrounding environment are preserved in ...

Coal balls are petrified pockets of plant debris that were preserved 280 million to 325 million years ago during the Upper Carboniferous Period, sometimes called the Great Coal Age. Plants immortalized in these coal balls are preserved at the cellular level, details not preserved in other types of fossils.
