Abstract: 

The distribution of total oxygen, its forms of binding and geochemical bonds have been studied in Bulgarian Paleogene coals. Various petrographical and chemical analyses have been carried out. The analytical data are quantitatively evaluated by means of statistical, regressional and cluster analyses. The quantitative distribution of the oxygen forms in the coal macromolecule enables the estimation of the coalification processes development. The good correlation between oxygen-containing functional groups and the different macerals suggests that the hydroxyl (phenol), carbonyl and carboxyl groups can be used as genetic indicators. The dependences established between the carbon content, respectively, the reflectance and >CO and -COOH content points that these groups are coalification indicators.

Распределение общего кислорода, его форм связи и геохимические связи изучались на олгарских палеогеновых углях. Применялись разнообразные петрографические и химические анализы. Аналитическая информация подвергалась статистическому, регрессионному и кластерному анализу. Количественное распределение форм кислорода в угольной макромолекуле позволило выявить развитие процесса углефикации. Хорошая корреляция между кислород-содержащими функциональными группами и разными мацералями дает онование предполагать, что карбоксильные группы могуть быть использованы для генетических индикаций. Установленные зависимости между содержанием углерода, отражательной способностью и содержанием >СО и -СООН дает основание использовать последние группы в качестве индикаторов углефикации.
