Statement

The data was originally created in 2004 as part of a project carried out by the British Geological Survey, with the assistance of Wardell Armstrong and Imperial College, London. It represents a summary of the results of the Study of the UK Coal Resource for New Exploitation Technologies Project, carried out for the DTI Cleaner Coal Technology Programme under the management of Future Energy Solutions. For more information please see the project report (Jones et al, 2004), available at http://www.bgs.ac.uk/downloads/start.cfm?id=1712. The 2004 study drew on both existing and new digital data to produce a summary paper map with a nominal scale of 1: 1,750,000. The paper publication included regional coal fields at 1: 600,000 scale .
