DPRK geologists have recently discovered tens of millions of tons of reserve coal fields.
In the course of analysing the prospecting data of a region, they found out that several disharmony folds exist in that region.
“As the structure of fold is directly connected with coal beds or different ore bodies, the research into it is of great importance in tracing back to the crustal movement and its history and finding out underground resources,” said Pak Hyon Uk, director of the geology institute of the State Academy of Sciences.
Generally, disharmony fold consists of anticlinal fold and synclinal fold which were formed by the crustal movement.
According to Pak, the present coal mines in the region are placed at the anticlinal fold, but there are possibilities that anthracite coal beds may exist in the synclinal fold.
The geologists interpreted the deep structure of syncline in the region, which had been evaluated as the noncommercial district in the past. They also ascertained the characteristics of deep development of coal-bed with the help of geophysical prospecting means.
