The Evolution of Coal Mining and Energy Resources in Central Europe

This text examines the historical and current coal mining landscape in Central Europe, highlighting the significant role of the Upper Silesian Coal Basin and Lublin Coal Basin. It discusses the quality parameters of coal, including calorific value, sulfur, and ash content, as well as the region's shale gas reserves estimated by the US Department of Energy. The text also acknowledges the pioneering work of Ignacy Łukasiewicz in petroleum, emphasizing energy security in Poland, and the implications for the region's economic resources and employment in coal mining.
