Spontaneous coal fires are known from both post-coal mining waste-rock heaps and natural geoenvironments. They represent a still not fully scientifically encompassed phenomenon. They are very difficult to be fully contained, thus sustaining long-time emissions in the heaps. Some of them may burn for 70 years and more. As a worldwide issue, both from environmental and human safety...
