Abstract
). With the increase of the burial depth, the coal permeability also decreases exponentially. The primary and cataclastic structure coals generally have a higher hydro-fracturing permeability than the granulitic and mylonitic structure coals. This work can serve as a guide for the target area selections of CBM enrichment and high production in the Daning block.
