Publication_Date: 2000 0307 Title: Coal-Bearing Regions and Structural Sedimentary Basins of China and Adjacent Seas Series_Information: Series_Name: USGS, Open-File Report Issue_Identification: 00-047 Publication_Information: Publication_Place: Reston, VA Publisher: USGS; Eastern Energy Resources Team Description: Abstract: This dataset is a collection of coal-bearing regions located in The Peoples Republic of China. Included in this dataset are the age and name of the coal-bearing regions. Purpose: The purpose of this dataset is to give geologists and other scientists a spatial database of coal-bearing regions in China. This data set will be utilized in energy research and cartographic projects. Supplemental_Information: Procedures_Used: The coal-bearing regions were digitized from the Energy Mineral Resource Map of China and Adjacent Seas, published in 1992 by the Geological Publishing House, Chinese Institute of Geology and Mineral Resources Information and Institute of Mineral Deposits of Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, utilizing ARC/INFO.
