Abstract
Coal from the Pechora Basin of the Usinsk deposit was investigated using petrographic analysis. It was shown that coal samples are characterized by the close petrographic composition and are related to grade Zh (medium volatile coal) according to classification on the basis of genetic and technological parameters. On the basis of the data obtained, this kind of coal may be recommended as a raw material for the production of metallurgical coke.
