Permineralized plant fossils (coal balls) of Bolsovian age (ex Westphalian C) were discovered in the Foord seam of the Stellarton Basin of Nova Scotia. The coalball plants were preserved in a sideritedolomite matrix and formed in a nonmarine intermontane setting. The coalball flora is dominated by arborescent lycopods and contains a few ferns, as well as occasional seed ferns, calamiteans ...

Calcified fossils are also known. The best examples are, however, the coal balls. Goal balls (Figs. 504 505) are irregularly rounded masses ranging in diameter from a few millimetres to a metre. These occur often in great numbers within chunks of coal. Each ball is a mass of calcium and magnesium carbonate with, sometimes, iron sulphide.
NORTH AMERICAN COAL BALLS One final cryptic episode of Stopes's work on Carboniferous coal balls relates the discovery of coal balls in North America. That discovery has generally been attributed to Adolf Carl Noé (), who collected coal balls in Illinois and adjacent states, beginning in 1922 (Noé 1923; Morey and Lyons 1995).

A coal ball is a type of concretion, varying in shape from an imperfect sphere to a flatlying, irregular balls were formed in Carboniferous Period swamps and mires, when peat was prevented from being turned into coal by the high amount of calcite surrounding the peat; the calcite caused it to be turned into stone instead. As such, despite not actually being made of coal, the coal ...
Coal balls containing Callipteridium Sullivanti were collected from the PittsburgMidway Coal Company, approximately 8 mi. southwest of West Mineral, Kansas, and from the What Cheer Clay Products mine at What Cheer, Iowa. The Kansas coal balls are from the Fleming coal, Cherokee shale, Des Moines series of the Middle Pennsylvanian.

Coal balls were formed in Carboniferous Period swamps and mires, when peat was prevented from being turned into coal by the high amount of calcite surrounding the peat; the calcite caused it to be turned into stone instead. . What is Coal ball in botany?
Three methods were used to collect data from the same coalball peels and were compared for data comparability and for relative time efficiency. Altho.
The coal ball floras are dominated by cordaitopsids and lycopsids, with the marattialean fern Psaronius as a common element. This is generally consistent with the known macrofloral assemblages but represents a more restricted range of taxa due to the limited number of known occurrences. ...

In coal balls where Calamites plant parts are permineralized (original structures replaced by minerals) plant parts sometimes have different names to show that they preserve internal anatomical structures. Some even show cellular structures (Stewart, 1981; Cichan and Taylor, 1983)! ... Studies in fossil botany,, Pteridophyta: A C Black ...
Coal Balls. Because coal balls are accumulations of (degrading) plant material (technically peat), they also are an excellent source of various forms of decaying organisms, including fungi. Numerous fungal remains have been found in coal balls, including hyphae, spores, and various types of reproductive structures.
A Coal ball is a permineralised life form that is full of calcium, magnesium and occasionally iron sulfide. They generally have a round shape. Coal balls are not made of coal, even though they have the name "coal ball". In 1855, two English scientists, Joseph Dalton Hooker and Edward William Binney, found coal balls in England. Because of that ...
