Statement

This map has been produced using Coal Authority ‘mine water blocks’ which illustrate the best known hydrological divisions in coalfields. The boundaries have been hexagonised to reflect uncertainty in their margins. Data from three sources was used to estimate temperatures including (1) Coal Authority downhole temperature profiles, from boreholes and shafts that intercept flooded workings; (2) the BGS UK Geothermal Catalogue (UKGC) including data from the National Coal Board, hydrocarbon boreholes and other investigative boreholes, representing both mined and unmined areas of the coalfields; (3) historical in situ strata temperatures measured directly in coal seams within operational coal mines.
