Secondary Transformation : Geo-Chemical Stage The decayed vegetation was subjected to extreme temperature and crushing pressures. It took several hundred million years to transform the soggy Peat into the solid mineral. 20 m of compacted vegetation was required to produce 1 m seam of coal. This is called as coalification or coal forming. The extent to which coalification has progressed determines the rank of coal.

Coal Classification There are two main ways for classifying coal - by rank and by type. Coal Rank Coal Types Coal Rank : The degree of 'metamorphisrn' or coalification undergone by a coal, as it matures from peat to anthracite, has an important bearing on its physical and chemical properties, and is referred to as the 'rank' of the coal. Low rank coals, such as lignite and sub-bituminous coals, are typically softer, friable materials with a dull, earthy appearance; they are characterised by high moisture levels and a low carbon content, and hence a low energy content. Higher rank coals are typically harder and stronger and often have a black vitreous lustre.

Composition of Coals The natural constituents of coal can be divided into two groups: (i) the organic fraction, which can be further subdivided into microscopically identifiable macerals; and (ii) the inorganic fraction, which is commonly identified as ash subsequent to combustion, but which may be isolated in the form of mineral matter by low-temperature ashing (LTA). The organic fraction can be further subdivided on the basis of its rank or maturity.
