Summary:

The Shengli Coalfield, located approximately 3 km from the outskirts of Xilinhaote City in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, is approximately 680 km northeast of Baotou and 525 km north of Beijing. The coalfield occurs along the west slope of Daxinganling Mountain in a broad synclinal basin containing the Bayanhua coal-bearing formations.

The coal-bearing strata occurs in the Cretaceous Period's Shengli Fm and is defined by a faulted- bounded synclinal basin structure influenced by several large displacement normal faults. The mining license for China Shenhua's Shengli No. 1 Mine specifies opencut mining of six recoverable seams down to and including the No. 6 Seam. The focus seams show lateral continuity with cumulative recoverable thickness averaging 54 m (all splits of both Nos. 5 and 6 Seams). Overburden above the No. 5 Seam ranges from 20 m to 180 m, and averages 100 m. The seams dip northeast at 5° to 6°.
