dc.description.abstractThis study reveals the hydrocarbon production potential and thermal maturity of Çilhoroz coals, which is the most important local coal field around Erzincan in the Eastern Anatolia Region. This area is one of the best examples of the continental collision zone in the world and is located in a north-south convergent collision zone between the Eurasian and Arabian Plates. The average thickness of the coal seam is about 4 m and these coals are currently mined by open pit mining methods. Coal is predominated by combined xylitic/attrital lithotypes and by huminite macerals with inertinite and minor liptinite macerals. The content of mineral matter is variable but generally low, it consists mostly of quartz, calcite, clay minerals, and pyrite. Although the Rock-Eval pyrolysis data show that the investigated coal bearing unit is represented by a significant hydrocarbon (oil and gas) potential, hydrocarbon species did not develop due to low maturation © 2023, Petroleum and Coal.All Rights Reserved.
