Yes -- there is a big deposit of brown coal or lignite. As a resource in a free trade world, it is doubtless worthless. Too polluting to utilize, and too low Btu to be worth upgrading. It apparently supplied about 15% of Serbia's electrcity. Because of sanctions, it is very important as an internal source, but if Serbia was free to trade, it might very well be shut down and be replaced by Russian or Roumanian oil barged up the Danube. There are no plans I know of to build a pipeline anywhere near Kosovo. The Albania terrain is too difficult and the pipeline would be much too costly. Any oil exported from southern Russia should be pipelined to the Black Sea, then taken by tanker to market.
