The Most Basin (also known as North Bohemian Basin; Czech: Mostecká pánev, German: Nordböhmisches Becken) is a structural basin and geomorphological mesoregion of the Czech Republic. It is named after the city of Most. It forms the southwestern and central parts of the Ústí nad Labem Region. It is among the richest European deposits of lignite, which has been extracted here since the second half of 19th century, mostly by extensive surface mining.
