Translation of "Braunkohleförderung" in English

Lignite production remained almost the same as in the preceding year.

This lake is a relic of former days when lignite was mined from the surface here.

Already in 1931, the coal mine could be restarted, first with 45 and later with 60 workers.

The decline of rock and lignite mining and its associated industries necessitated a restructuring of the Emsch region in the Ruhr.

This conclusion is valid irrespective of whether or not Greece maintains its current national policy of allocating additional lignite reserves for exploitation, bearing in mind the obligation to respect environmental and public health objectives that must be met with regard to the exploitation of lignite.

Both Poland and the Czech Republic are major coal producers, Estonia produces bituminous shale and practically all candidate countries for accession to the European Union produce lignite.

However, PPC has taken no particular action since then to make available consolidated group accounts and balance sheets (lignite extraction – production – transmission – distribution).

Lignite production (68 million tons per annum) is economically viable and is progressively concentrated at one deposit in Central Poland (Belchatow).

This is mainly explained by a fall of about 30% in lignite production in the new German Länder.

The reason for this was the drop in lignite production in the new German Länder (by more than 20%), and the slow reduction in coal production.

The production fell by 3.4% in Germany and by 1.5% in Greece a decrease ¡n the total crude oil production of 1.9% mainly due to decreased output in the United Kingdom (3.0%).

Community lignite production has risen considerably by 35 Mt over the last 15 years to reach 176 Mt in 1988.

To make way for lignite mining, in the 1970s, this 14th-century early Gothic church was relocated in unique fashion.

The project "Structural Change in Coal-Mining Regions" assesses two historic processes: (1) phase-out of coal mining in the Ruhr area and (2) reduction of lignite mining in the Lausitz after the German reunification.

Between 1960 and 1990, lignite mining in Lusatia had a massive effect on the water balance in the whole of the Spree’s catchment area.

In the nineteenth century, the city's development experienced a significant boom due to increasing industrialisation (textile industry and lignite coal mining) and the introduction of local self-government.

The VGB, together with interested companies, presented solutions to problems that are on the agenda of the TGEF working group "Conventional Power Plants, Modernization of Power Stations and Lignite Extraction" at its exhibition stand.

Nearly 10 years after the last brown coal support the Olbersdorfer lake has progressed to a leisure oasis of the special kind.

The Sokolov District is mainly characterized by the concentration of brown coal mining, energy production, chemical industry and machine industry.

The analyses further show that lignite mining can be reduced greatly, as much less of this type of coal will be required in future.

In the second half of 20th century the town had to make way for brown coal mining and according to it on the other side of the river was established new city of Most.

Troldhede gave rise to dramatic events associated with lignite extraction, which began here during the First World War (1914- 1918).

The deep blue offers a car wreck, forests and old wagons from the times of lignite production.

It is only with the help of the state and in fighting for state power that the dichotomies – that are rooted in capitalism – of economy and environment, of lignite production and renewable energy, of industrial and service sectors, of those living here in Germany and the two billion people living in squalid conditions, solidarity-based and changing, transformational, i.e. with the goal of a new whole, can be dealt with.
