Abstract

Selected Tertiary coals from the western part of Indonesia (Sumatera, Kalimantan and Java) indicate similarities and differences in type and rank characteristics. These coals reflect their geological setting, particularly for intrusive and stratigraphic aspects. Type and rank of the coals were assessed by petrographic examination. The coals are mainly dominated by vitrinite, common liptinite and rare inertinite and mineral matter. Vitrinite macerals are dominated detrovitrinite and telovitrinite. Resinite, cutinite and suberinite are the dominant liptinite macerals in the coals. Inertinite macerals in the coals consist of semifusinite, sclerotinite and inertodetrinite. The type differences largely reflect climatic influence and differences in peat conditions. In spite of short geological history, the coals exhibit variable vitrinite reflectances. The high vitrinite reflectance of the coals is a result of higher regional coalification levels in the basins associated with greater cover and effects of igneous intrusions.

Abstract

Petrographic composition of the Neogene Tenggarong coals in the Kutai Basin-East Kalimantan indicates its geological setting. The aim of this study is to obtain an understanding of the geologic aspects controlling the petrographic composition of the coals.Variation of type and rank in the coals was determined by petrographic examination of twenty-two samples. The coals are absolutely dominated by vitrinite, common liptinite and rare inertinite and mineral matter. Vitrinite macerals are dominated by detrovitrinite and telovitrinite. Cutinite and resinite are the dominant liptinite macerals in the coals. The inertinite macerals include semifusinite, inertodetrinite and sclerotinite. Clay and pyrite are the dominant mineral matters in the coals. The type differences largely reflect climatic influence and differences in peat conditions. Rank of the coals, in general, depends largely on the stratigraphic position. Reflectance measurements on the coals indicate that there is a slightly difference in rank. The coals are sub-bituminous rank (Rvmax of 0.40-0.47%). The change in vitrinite reflectance of the coals is due to the thicker cover/overburden on the high rank coals. Nevertheless, the vitrinite reflectance is higher in some coals in the Loa Kulu area (Rvmax of 0.48-0.57%) due to its stratigraphic position that is at the bottom of the sequence. The type and rank characteristics of the coals clearly influence the utilization. The coals are suited to utilize for direct combustion and therefore, the major utilization potential would be for power generation.
