Abstract

X-ray diffractometry, X-ray fluorescence, and ICP-MS have been used to study the phase and elemental composition of the thermal coal from the Pavlovsk brown coal deposit and their ash-forming compounds. The results of the spectral analysis methods were combined with the data of thermal gravimetry, elemental analysis of OM, and scanning electron microscopy. The metal-bearing potential of the thermal coal from the deposit and the prospects for the associated extraction of useful components have been estimated. A set of analytical methods is proposed for the rapid assessment of the content of valuable and significant elements in solid fossil fuels for the comprehensive development of the coal deposits.
