This study investigates the organic petrographic of the upper Triassic to Lower Jurassic Olang coal deposits. Olang area is located in 70 km of northeast Shahroud. This area is situated in Gheshlagh Olang synclinal which is a member of eastern Alborz coal basin. Microscopic studies showed that all three maceral groups of vitrinite, inertinite and liptinite presented in coal deposits of the Olang region and the vitrinite is most important maceral group in these coals. Macerals of vitrinite group include colotelinite, collodetrinite and corpogelinit that collodetrinite is the most abundant of maceral in coal deposits. All of inertinite macerals group observed in these coals which Semifusinite and fusinite are the most abundant in this group. Spornite, cutinite, resinite and lipthodetrinite macerals of liptinite group are present in the coals. Abundance of collodetrinite, presentation of fnginite and the absence of tellinite in these coals are usually thought to indicate deposition in neutral to weakly alkaline waters in an oxygen-rich environment.
