Yes it is;because the 1st stage is Peat, 2nd stage Lignite, 3rd stage Bituminous coal, and 4th stage is Antheracite.
The first formation of coal: Dead plants eventually accumulate in swamps forming peat.
Hematite is a type of iron ore.
accumulation of organic matter, compression into peat, compression into coal
Steps in formation of coal 1. Dead organic matter forms peat. 2. Peat is compressed and water is forced out. 3. Pressure compresses the material into "soft" coal. 4. Higher temperatures and pressure form "hard" coal.
It can be, but not all peat becomes coal, and not all coal began as peat. Peat forms on the Earth's surface, while coal has to form within rock layers deep in the Earth. Coal takes many thousands of years to form. Peat forms more quickly, but only at about 1 mm depth per year. So neither can be considered a renewable form of energy.
The first formation of coal: Dead plants eventually accumulate in swamps forming peat.
Coal formation has 5 stages. The first stage is called Peat which is the brown to black build-up of materials from woody plants.
The percentage of carbon increases with each stage of coal formation. Peat- 50-60% Lignite- 60-70% Bituminous- 70-90% Anthracite -over 90%
Hematite is a type of iron ore.
peat
Peat is important because people dig peat out of the ground to use it for heating their homes and cooking good food. Although peat produces a lot of smoke and pollutants when you burn it, it is also very helpful. Peat is found in Russia Ukraine, and Great Britain. Peat is used all around the world, in fact. Peat is the first stage in coal formation. If peat did not was not real, then there would be no coal. That is why peat is important.

Peat and lignite (brown coal) are both beginning stages in the production of coal by natural processes. But coals are not all produced from peat.
Steps in formation of coal 1. Dead organic matter forms peat. 2. Peat is compressed and water is forced out. 3. Pressure compresses the material into "soft" coal. 4. Higher temperatures and pressure form "hard" coal.
