anthracite coal is the metamorphic form of bituminous coal which is the sedimentary form. in other words it has been heated under pressure.

Anthracite, the hardest coal, forms from the greatest pressure.
anthracite coal is the metamorphic form of bituminous coal which is the sedimentary form. in other words it has been heated under pressure.
Anthracite is a metamorphic rock. Anthracite is formed when an organic sedimentary rock - coal - is compressed and heated in the ground.
Bituminous coal.
wood-peat-lignite-subbituminous-bituminous-anthracite The wood is converted to anthracite (coal) through various stages. lignite, subbituminous,bituminous,anthracite are the major coal types formed these are ranked based on the presence of carbon ,hydrogen and oxygen content
Anthracite, also known as anthracite coal, is formed through metamorphism. Anthracite needs pressure to form, as well temperatures of at least 250 degrees Celsius.

Anthracite, a variety of coal, is formed from the metamorphosis of bituminous coal through natural processes of heat and pressure deep underground.
coal is created by the deposition and compaction of huge plant(organic) material deposited into a basin,with the increasing depth the high rank of coal is formed. The order is:- peat>lignite>bituminous>anthracite Peat is formed at shallow depth and on moving downward anthracite is formed at greater depth.
