Rheinisches Braunkohlerevier - Wikipedia

Initially, lignite was only extracted as a basic material for the color production of the Cologne umber and for the leaching of alum. It was not until the end of the 17th century that it was discovered that the wet, unusable layer, which was stored above the clay layer during clay extraction for the ceramics industry in the Brühl and Frechen area and had to be cleared away, was combustible aft
