The physical and digital curation of cellulose acetate peels and other types of coal ball specimens is critical for longterm preservation and accessibility. Physical curation involves embedding coal balls in media to slow pyrite deterioration. Digital curation creates highresolution scans of peels, which can be shared and accessed online.

InstruZetor, Henry Shaw School of Botany of Washington University The occurrence in America of the petrifactions known as coalballs has been known for many years and in itself needs no review. It is, however, still rather generally accepted that American coalballs are by no means the equal of the renowned English specimens

1. A morphological study was made of plant material preserved in coal balls from Calhoun coal mine, Richland County, Illinois. The geologic horizon is Middle Conemaugh, early Upper Pennsylvanian. 2. Preparations were made by the cellulose peel method. 3. Seven plants are described in detail. Of these, four are sporangia of ferns, one is the microsporangium of a pteridosperm, and two are seeds ...

Acetate paper with a thickness of inches is used to make the first peel of a coal ball after it has been cut with a rock saw. This paper type can also be used for test peels to identify the optimum etching time in acid. The .005inchthick acetate paper is more robust, reducing the chance of damage when removed.

Sometimes, presence of coal ball in the roof of a coal seam is considered as a marker horizon. Growth of dolomite may be influenced by marine invasion. In course of coalification, calcite and ankarite may develop along cracks and fissures. At around 900 °C calcite changes to lime while dolomite alters to lime as well as periclase.

In the coal ball described were portions of plants that have hitherto been known from the Carboniferous of America only as impressions; they are Calamites, Sphenophyllum, Bothrodendron, and Lyginopteris. Only transverse sections of the steles of Calamites, Sphenophyllum, and Lyginopteris were found. Belonging to Bothrodendron are transverse sections of a stem tip, a megasporangium and ...

coal ball, a lump of petrified plant matter, frequently spheroid, found in coal seams of the Upper Carboniferous Period (from 325,000,000 to 280,000,000 years ago). Coal balls are important sources of fossil information relating to the forests preceding the Coal Age. As a result of a variety of conditions, small pockets of plant debris in Carboniferous swamps, infiltrated by mineral salts ...

Coal Balls. Because coal balls are accumulations of (degrading) plant material (technically peat), they also are an excellent source of various forms of decaying organisms, including fungi. Numerous fungal remains have been found in coal balls, including hyphae, spores, and various types of reproductive structures.

A Coal ball is a permineralised life form that is full of calcium, magnesium and occasionally iron sulfide. They generally have a round shape. Coal balls are not made of coal, even though they have the name "coal ball". In 1855, two English scientists, Joseph Dalton Hooker and Edward William Binney, found coal balls in England. Because of that ...

6. Coal Balls: Petrifactions of spherical specimens are generally termed coal balls. During the formation of coal balls the plant material in swamps gets infiltrated with carbonates of calcium or magnesium, so that the debris of plants will not get converted into coal. Coal ball plants are of great value in palaeobotanical studies. 7.
