Because, it has organic material that is good for plant growth.
Coal is formed from plant material falling on saturated soil (swamps marshes & wetlands), the plant material decomposes only very slowly as no oxygen can reach them, this then gets buried by more organic material. then eventually the organic material is lithified forming coal ( rock formation) .
This organic material is made up of living organisms such as plants and animals, dead plants and animals, and nutrients that have come from decomposed plants and animals.
