Summary

Brown coal exploitation in Greece is of primary interest because it is an abundant domestic energy resource that contributes more than 70% in total electricity production. Greek brown coals present challenging and diverse technological characteristics, which should be studied to design and manage efficiently the mining, as well as, the operation of nearby power stations. The present study focuses on the organic and inorganic properties, as well as the mineralogy of the most-prominent Greek coal basins and their importance to mine planning, as well as to power station design and a productive working operation.
