The hard coal deposits in the Czech Republic are mainly in the Ostrava-Karviná coal basin in the east of the country, and lie within the Czech section of the Upper Silesian coalfield. Lignite basins are located in the regions of North and West Bohemia, close to the Krusne hory (north-western border with Germany).
Since 1990, Czech output of bituminous coal has fallen by 50 %, to approx. 11 million tonnes in 2009. The output of lignite has declined by 43 %, from 79 million tonnes in 1990, to 45,1 million tonnes in 2009.
