Bituminous coal is relatively soft and dull, as opposed to anthracite which is hard and shiny. Anthracite is also much more dense and pure. Because of its purity (can be up to 98% carbon), Anthracite burns a very hot, smokeless flame.
Anthracite is harder than bituminous coal. Anthracite has a higher carbon content and lower moisture content, making it a more dense and harder coal type.
The main types of coal are anthracite, bituminous, and lignite. Anthracite is the highest rank of coal and has high carbon content, making it the cleanest burning coal. Bituminous coal has a lower carbon content and is commonly used for electricity generation. Lignite is the lowest rank of coal, with the highest moisture content and lowest carbon content, making it less energy-dense than anthracite and bituminous coal.
Other names for coal include anthracite, bituminous coal, lignite, and thermal coal.
bituminous is less hard,and its dull.whereas anthracite is very hard.

yes, there are: Anthracite Bituminous sub-bituminous lignite
The protolith of schist is typically shale or slate, which undergoes metamorphism to form schist. The protolith of anthracite coal is primarily bituminous coal, which is subjected to higher temperature and pressure conditions during metamorphism to convert into anthracite coal.
bituminous is less hard,and its dull.whereas anthracite is very hard.
Anthracite is the highest carbon coal, and therefore the most valuable.
