    Peat is an organic sediment formed in bogs. When dry, peat is combustible. It forms from the accumulation of non-decomposed or only incompletely decomposed plant matter and represents the first stage of charring (Wikipedia).

    Latvia is known for its peat mining. The mining volume in 2022 was 2.0 million tons
