Coal was formed over the course of many millions of years from dead plants that were exposed to high pressures and temperatures in the deep layers of the earth, which led to the process of coalification.
In the course of the coaling process, first peat was formed, then lignite, hard coal and finally graphite.
Lignite is mostly mined in opencast mining and mainly used in power plants to generate electricity and heat.
