Lignite
Peat is an early stage of coal formation with low carbon content and high moisture content. Brown coal, also known as lignite, has a higher carbon content and lower moisture content compared to peat. Black coal, including bituminous and anthracite coal, has the highest carbon content and is the most mature form of coal.
A soft brown coal with less moisture is called bituminous coal.
A soft brown coal is often referred to as lignite. It is the lowest grade of coal with low carbon content and high moisture content.
Peat is the first form of true coal in the process of coal formation. It is a soft, organic material that forms in waterlogged environments through the partial decay of plant matter. Peat is the precursor to lignite, the lowest rank of true coal.
Yes, lignite is indeed a type of soft brown coal. It is one of the lowest-ranked coal types in terms of carbon content and energy value.

The four stages of coal formation are peat, lignite, bituminous, and anthracite. Peat is the first stage and is partially decomposed plant material. As the peat is buried and compressed, it transforms into lignite, then bituminous coal, and finally anthracite, which is the most carbon-rich and hardest form of coal.

this is kinda vague, but here are some guesses: peat moss, mulch, or a cow pie.

Peat is a soft brown material made up of partially decayed plants like sphagnum moss, reeds, and grasses. It is usually found in wetland areas and is commonly used as a soil conditioner or fuel source.
Millions of years ago, large areas of the Earth's land area were covered in dense peat swamps. Over time, the peat in the swamps was buried, and forced deep underground. Extreme pressure and heat eventually turned the peat into soft coal, and later some if that became hard coal also as a result of heat and pressure.
Bituminous coal is largely the product of ancient plant remains, although some animals would have contributed to a very small percentage of its mass.
