There are in commercial use today in the United States various classifications of coal, each based on one or more characteristics. The bases of these classifications may be described as follows: GeNeRaL Basis Examples 1. Geological By seams and basins (local). 2. Chemical By constituents, as determined by analysis—ash, volatilc, slilfur and hcating value. 3. Combustion Characteristics As frce-burning, smokeless, character of ash. 4. Carbonization Characteristics Coking, noncoking. 5. Physical Characteristics Splint, soft, hard, block. 6. Geographical States, Fields, Counties, Districts. 7. Sizes By dimension or name. 8. Company Names Producing or sales company names, as "C. C. B. Pocahontas," etc. 9. Trade Names, copyrighted or not 10. Uses Gas, steam, coking, locomotive, fuel, bunkers, etc. 11. Use Methods Stoker coal. 12. Pools (Tidewater Exchanges) Analyses Size Seams Railroads Uses Structure Districts There are also classifications founded on more than one basis, as follows: 1. Geographical and Geological. By locality of mines (State, District, County) and seam. Examples: Cambria County, Miller Seam, New River, Sewell Seam. 2. Geographical and Chemical. Alabama medium volatile. 3. Combustion Characteristics and Ash Content. Free-burning, red ash (anthra- cite). 4. Carbonization Characteristics and Analysis. Noncoking, high-volatile, low sulfur. 5. Physical and Carbonization Characteristics. Splint, noncoking. 6. Size and Use. ¾-in. gas coal; domestic sizes (prepared sizcs); stcam sizcs. 7. Company Name and Seam. Consolidation Co., Elkhorn. 8. Size and Analysis. Low-volatile run-of-mine; low-volatilc slack. 9. Sizes—size of screen and name. 6 by sin. lump. 10. Chemical and USP. High-volatile steam. 11. Geographical and Use. Youghiogheny gas. 12. District, Size and Use. Pittsburgh gas l¼-in. lump. ,
