Estado del arte para la caracterización geológica del depósito de carbón en la zona de la mina La Jagua
La zona carbonífera del Cesar forma parte de la Cuenca Cesar – Ranchería la cual ha sido explorada y explotada para carbones. Dentro de esta cuenca se encuentra el área carbonífera de la Jagua, en el municipio de la Jagua de Ibirico, en la región central del Departamento del Cesar. Los carbones que...

Geología
Mina La Jagua.
Coals deposits in the Cesar area
make part of the Cesar – Rancheria Basin
which have been explored and operated to obtain coal. Inside this basin
exactly in La Jagua de Ibirico
central area of Cesar Region
it’s located the Jagua Coal Deposits. Those deposits make part of the Palaeocene age Medium Member in Los Cuervos Formation
and are characterized by having thick sandy packages
with ferruginous levels of 0
5 – 0
7m thickness
across the coals layers. La Jagua Syncline is located 5km to the northeast of La Jagua de Ibirico area; it’s slightly asymmetric dipping between10° y 35°
it have length of 10
4km and width of 4km (Hernández
2003). This syncline is located in La Jagua Mine
where coal open-pit mining is developed. The coal is bituminous thermal
with low sulphur concentrations
highly volatile type A and B
with high energetic content. Currently
the coal sequences encompass 22 productive coal layers and their thickness varies between 0
3ms and 5
2m. The amount of the coal reserves in the studied area are 105’18 millions of tons of coal.
