RE:RE:Price of Coal is Down, 36 Miners Permanently Lose Their JobsA noted geoscientist has commented on the Raven coal: The quality of the coal which is high ash,
high volatile A bituminous in rank which averages 35% ash on a raw basis. It is not a "coking" coal by itself-rather it is a "semi-soft coking coal" which is suitalbe for blending only with higher quality coking coals in the steel making process. It therefore sells at a 40% discount to higher quality coking coals.
