Here are some ways to classify coal (by grouping it with similar types of rocks): Because slag formed from lava-like melted rock, it's sort of like an igneous rock -- but because humans made the melt, it's not a true igneous rock. So, we made up a new classification for slag: We call it a pseudo-igneous rock (pronounced SUE-doe ig-NEE-us).
The three main ranks of coal are lignite, bituminous coal, and anthracite. Lignite is closely related to peat but has a lower moisture content. It has the lowest heating value of any of the ranks of coal. Bituminous coal is more dense than lignite and is black in color.
