Identification and Description[iv] Daldinia concentrica is a relatively easy to identify mushroom that resembles hard, roundish lumps of coal stuck to the surface of decaying deadwood. Furthermore, unlike most other mushrooms, D. concentrica does not possess a cap, gills, pores, or even a stem. Instead, this species has a fruitbody composed of ...

Coal balls are calcium carbonate accumulations that permineralized peat in paleotropical PermoCarboniferous (∼320250 Ma) mires. The formation of coal balls has been debated for over a century yet a widely applicable model is lacking. Two observations have been particularly challenging to explain: 1) the narrow temporal occurrence of coal balls and 2) their typical elemental (high Mg) and ...

Coal balls floras from the Taiyuan Formation in north China have been mainly studied by Tian Baolin and collaborators, from the no. 7 coal seam in the Xishan coal field and have been summarised by Li et al., 1995, Tian et al., 1996. From these works quantitative studies have been undertaken, compiled from hundreds of coal balls (Wang et al., 1995).

From the perspective of Phanerozoic time, coal balls are rare, apparently limited to a 24 interval (323299 Ma) in the Pennsylvanian and earliest within this interval, coal balls occur in many coals.

The coalball discovery helps fill a stratigraphic gap in coalball occurrences in the upper Carboniferous (Bolsovian) of Euramerica. The autochthonous and hypautochthonous coalballs have a similar mineralogical composition and are composed of siderite (81), dolomiteankerite (019%), minor quartz and illite, and trace amounts of 'calcite'.

Coal balls are petrified pockets of plant debris that were preserved 280 million to 325 million years ago during the Upper Carboniferous Period, sometimes called the Great Coal Age. Plants immortalized in these coal balls are preserved at the cellular level, details not preserved in other types of fossils.

1. Introduction. Over 100 years have passed since Stopes and Watson (1909) proposed a marine origin for coal balls, which are carbonate concretions that formed in peat and contain anatomically preserved plant material. Most coal balls occur in paleotropical coals of Pennsylvanian and early Permian age. Although calcium carbonate is the primary mineral, coal balls usually contain pyrite ...

Perhaps the most significant point is the great variation in the percentages of carbonates, pyrites and organic matter, and these published analyses by no means give the extremes.

Coalballs are nodulelike rocks native to coal seams that contain mineralized plant organs or tissues (Zodrow et al., 1996), and are used for studies on coalforming plant species, structural morphology, and coalforming environments (Hilton et al., 2001, Wang et al., 2002, Zhou et al., 2004 ).

Coal balls may be concretionary as there name implies, but more commonly are irregular masses complexly interfingering with the surrounding coal. Coal balls may be inches to many feet in diameter and height, so will commonly look like a limestone bed in a narrow core. Coal balls tend to be brown in color and the coalball limestone includes ...

A coal ball is a type of concretion, varying in shape from an imperfect sphere to a flatlying, irregular slab. Coal balls were formed in Carboniferous Period swamps and mires, when peat was prevented from being turned into coal by the high amount of calcite surrounding the peat; the calcite caused it to be turned into stone instead.

Thin coal rims or streaks on the outside of some fossils represent all that is left of the original plant tissue. Permineralized Calamites which include original plant details are preserved in rare deposits called coal balls, but these are usually only found in active coal mines, so are not found by collectors.
