Abstract: The Suhaitu-Kucaowa area is located in the west of Ordos Basin, where the coal from the Paleozoic formations is characterized by medium ash content, medium-high volatile component, medium sulfur, low phosphorus and low chlorine. The coal is dominated by gas coal, with locally 1/3 coking coal or weakly caking coal, which can be used as coking blend, power fuel and domestic coal, moreover, as raw material for deep processing.
