The Durham Coalfield is a coalfield in north-east England.[1] It is continuous with the Northumberland Coalfield to its north. It extends from Bishop Auckland in the south to the boundary with the county of Northumberland along the River Tyne in the north, beyond which is the Northumberland Coalfield.[2] The two contiguous coalfield areas were often referred to as the Durham and Northumberland Coalfield(s) or as the Great Northern Coalfield.[3] GeologySee also Geology of County Durham The following coal seams are recorded from the Durham coalfield. They are listed here in stratigraphic order with the youngest at the top and the oldest/deepest at the bottom:[4] Upper Coal Measures
Middle Coal Measures
Lower Coal Measures
New Technology Future for the Durham CoalfieldWith the development of modern technology to produce energy and capture carbon dioxide by carbon capture and storage (CCS)[5] there is renewed interest in the exploitation[6] of the Durham Coalfield reserves by underground coal gasification. This is of strategic importance to local energy intensive industry such as the commodity chemical and steel members of the Northeast of England Process Industry Cluster (NEPIC).[7] References1. ^{{Citation|url=http://www.cmhrc.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/durhamcf.htm |title=The Durham Coalfield |publisher=Coalmining History Research Centre |accessdate=2010-12-05 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110719144222/http://www.cmhrc.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/durhamcf.htm |archivedate=2011-07-19 |df= }} {{coord|54.8386|-1.6045|display=title|region:GB_scale:500000}}{{Durham-geo-stub}}{{mining-stub}}2. ^British Geological Survey 2007 Bedrock geology: UK North 1:625,000 scale geological map, BGS, Keyworth, Notts 3. ^http://www.northumbria.ac.uk/sd/central/its/uni_press/catalogue/hist/gnc_bm/ 4. ^British Geological Survey 1:50,000 scale geological map sheet no 21 (England & Wales series) Sunderland 5. ^{{cite publication|first1=Dermot|last1=Roddy|first2=Paul|last2=Younger|title=Underground coal gasification with CCS: a pathway to decarbonising industry|publisher=Energy & Environmental Science|date=24 February 2010}} 6. ^{{cite publication|first=Fred|last=Pierce|publisher= New Scientist|title=Beyond Fracking The next energy revolution could be fired by coal|url=http://www.lmd.jussieu.fr/~fcodron/COURS/papiers/Beyond%20Fracking.pdf|date=15 February 2014 | access-date=4 November 2016}} 7. ^{{cite web|first1=Stan|last1=Higgins|first2=Felix|last2=O'Hare|publisher=The Chemical Engineer - www.thechemicalengineer.com|title=What industry needs form a UK industry strategy|url=http://www.thechemicalengineer.com/latest%20news/2016/october/what-we-need-from-a-uk-industrial-strategy.aspx|date=27 October 2016|access-date=4 November 2016}} 3 : Coal mining regions in England|Geography of County Durham|Mining in County Durham |
