Aspects of coal type and rank variation, and their bearing on hydrocarbon potential in seven wells from the southern Cooper Basin.
Seven wells along a line of section in the southern Cooper Basin were studied. Examination of coals in Permian and Triassic sequences revealed marked vertical and lateral trends in vitrinite, inertinite and exinite content and their microlithotypes....-
