Abstract

This study presents the series of experiments to determine porosity of coal samples using three methods: open porosity based on the fluid saturation (kerosene) method according to GOST 26450.1-85, surface porosity from the surface of polished section under ultraviolet light using Mineral-7 complex); and total porosity by tomographic method with the MST-05 NMR relaxometer. The porosity analysis revealed that traditional method yields essentially lower results. To correctly determine the porosity (open and total) characteristics it is necessary to use the integration of the above 3 methods, with an emphasis on one of them, depending on further applications of these characteristics.
