Description:
Abstract:
This shapefile contains Mongolia sample locations from the USGS World Coal Quality Inventory Project published in 2001 (Tewalt and others, 2001) with major-, minor-, and trace-element chemistry of coals. Some chemical analyses were performed by the USGS Energy Program Geochemistry Laboratory in Denver, CO. This shapefile contains provisional chemistry of coals collected in Mongolia from studies related to USGS activities with international agencies. Chemical information includes the following: proximate and ultimate analyses as well as forms of sulfur on an as-received basis, ash fusion temperatures (degrees Fahrenheit, reducing atmosphere), free-swelling index (FSI), major and minor oxide values (on ash), and major-, minor-, and trace-element concentrations on a whole-coal basis. Commercial laboratory analyses follow ASTM standard methods listed below. Data generated by the USGS laboratory also utilize ASTM methods, when possible. Available sample provenance information is also included. Partially published before at <https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2010/1196/>.
Purpose:
The purpose is to provide an internally consistent dataset on available coal samples. This dataset can be used to identify future research areas, such as investigating factors that may affect technical utilization and environmental impacts from mining or using coal. To do so, a major assumption must be made that the samples analyzed are representative of the coals being mined. Note that both sample availability and adherence to standard collection procedures may vary.

Data_Set_Credit:
Coal samples or analyses were obtained from Mr. Ganbaatar Badgaa of the Mongolian Ministry of Infrastructure's Department of Fuel and Energy with guidance from John Sanfilipo of the USGS. Proximate, ultimate, forms of sulfur, ash fusion temperature, and free-swelling index data were generated by Geochemical Testing, Inc., of Somerset, Pennsylvania, or Dickenson Labs, El Paso, Texas. Major-, minor- and trace-element concentrations were generated at the Geochemistry Laboratory of the USGS Energy Resources Program located in Denver, Colorado, by Lisa Brazeau, John Bullock, Jr., James D. Cathcart, and Jamey McCord. See see <http://energy.cr.usgs.gov/gg/geochemlab/> for methods and caveats. The USGS should be cited as the source of these data.

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
No estimation of accuracy can be reported. Analytical methods vary in sensitivity and repeatability and are described. Instrumentation may have changed through time.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Perfunctory quality control checks were employed on original dataset published by USGS World Coal Quality Inventory Project in 2001.
Completeness_Report:
Original dataset published by the USGS World Coal Quality Inventory Project in 2001 represented limited coal-bearing areas; the dataset cannot be considered complete and does not include temporal or spatial variability, but can be used as an indicator for further research.
