The Dęby Szlacheckie coal deposit is a lignite deposit in the north of Poland in Dęby Szlacheckie, Greater Poland Voivodeship, 130 km north-west of the capital, Warsaw. The Dęby Szlacheckie deposit has estimated reserves of 92 million tonnes of coal.[1]

The Association of Brown Coal Producers in Poland has identified the deposit as a possible source of fuel for power plants.[2]

In 2015 a local referendum in Gmina Babiak opposed PAK KWB Konin's proposed open-pit mining of the deposit.[3] In 2020, PAK KWB Konin, a subsidiary of the polish utility company ZE PAK, decided to not develop the Dęby Szlacheckie lignite deposit.[4]
