        The main formations with coal resources are Shemshak and Hojedk in Iran. They have special plantmega fossils that show Rrhetian- Liassic geological age for Shemshak formation. Studied region islocated in the north of Abyek area. Shemshak formation with high development outcrops is formed ofsandstone, siltstone, shale and claystone.
