I agree, but the article says that the lignite coal is in Canada - not Texas. Seems that our boys and girls in Arlington are only responsible for developing the process.
Still good news.
Actually, Texas has ample reserves of lignite in an area coincidentally known as the "Lignite Belt," running from Titus County (Mount Pleasant) in northeast Texas, southwest through the east-central portion of the state down to Bexar County (San Antonio). There are working lignite mines in Titus, Harrison, Limestone, Freestone and Grimes Counties, to name a few.

Actually, Texas has ample reserves of lignite in an area coincidentally known as the "Lignite Belt,"... That's great news for Texas, considering this recent technical breakthrough. Thank you.
