The first note about finding coal in the Volhynia area, at a depth of 15 m, was mentioned by W. Choroszewski in Pamiętnik Fizjograficzny (Physiographic Diary) in 1881.

Thirty years later, in 1911, a Russian geologist, M. Tetaev, formulated a hypothesis, based on the general knowledge of the geology of this part of Europe, that formations from the Carboniferous period might occur in the west slope of the Ukrainian crystalline massif.

The massif was investigated by geologist Prof. J. Samsonowicz, who in 1931 found Carboniferous flint nodules while exploring the area of Pełcza in the west of Volhynia.

A year later, he presented his concept of the occurrence of Carboniferous formations, along with their hypothetical distribution, in the western Volhynia and southern Polesie.

In 1938, in Tartaków productive carbon was found at a depth of 239 m, and this date is now considered to mark the beginning of exploration of the Volhynia and Lublin coal basin.

In 1955, an exploration drill-hole was made in Chełm, where carbon was found at depths from 580 to 1208 m. The drilling (six drill-holes) and geophysical research initiated by Instytut Geologiczny (Polish Geological Institute) led the Centralny Urząd Geologiczny (Central Geological Office) in 1964 to undertake a decision about beginning exploration, research drilling, and prospecting led by the Upper Silesian Branch of the Polish Geological Institute, based in Sosnowiec.

4, the Minister of Mining and Energy established a state-owned enterprise, Kopalnie Lubelskiego Zagłębia Węglowego w Budowie.

In subsequent years, the State Treasury reduced their participation in the share capital of the Lubelski Węgiel BOGDANKA S.A.

Increasing the stadium size, by moving towards the city core's, seamlessly disappointing number of Łęczna-based supporters mainly among Bogdanka Coal Mine miners.

[2] Enea Group, and Bogdanka Coal Mine, are still regarding to "Górnik Łęczna"-involvement, as to component of their CSR process.

Lubelski Węgiel Bogdanka S.A. is one of the leading coal producers in Poland, standing out in the industry in terms of financial performance, productivity, and investment plans to access new deposits.
