Abstract:Wujiaping formation is the coal-bearing strata in Yushan coal mine. It contains two main mineable coal strata. It has the characteristics of medium ash and volatile, high-sulfur, low phosphorus, extremely low or low chloride, low arsenic, high fluorine, medium and high calorific value. There are rich coal resource and occurred as banding type. Through analysis on sedimentary environment and metamorphism in this area, influence factors for forming the characteristics of medium ash and high-sulfur have been introduced, and the zoning of coal has been explained. The change law of the main coal quality index has been pointed out.
