What is Coal?
Coal is a sedimentary rock composed
predominately of organic material, with a
greater or lesser amount of mineral
matter
Coal is derived from plant remains in a
sedimentary basin and is altered to solid
rock by heat and pressure applied during
the basin's formation
Different types of coals are produced
depending on formation and tectonic
histories.
Two main coal types used in the market:
-
Thermal coal: electricity generation
-
Metallurgical coal: steel making
