About this episode
Coal formation, once thought to require millions of years, has been demonstrated to occur in much less time under the right conditions. Scientists at Argonne National Laboratory showed that heating lignin with clay at 300°F for weeks to a year can produce coal, with longer heating yielding high-grade coal. These findings align with creationist claims that most of the Earth's coal beds likely formed rapidly during Noah's flood.
