Production amounts in 2002 were just one-fourth of 1999 levels, which stood at just 4.8 million short tons
Entering the twentieth century, use of anthracite was clearly on the rise, when production reached 57.3 million tons and grew to more than 100 million tons by World War I.
Pennsylvania had 31 anthracite mines in 2001. Leading anthracite-mining firms included Bradford Coal Company (2002 revenues, $19 million), Anthracite Industries, Inc. (2002 revenues, $8.2 million), and Reading Anthracite (2002 revenues, $3.4 million).
Most of the original markets for anthracite were relinquished long ago to natural gas, fuel oil, and other coals, such as bituminous and lignite coal.
The last stage of coal development is the anthracite stage. Anthracite is the highest rank of coal and is known for its high carbon content and low volatile matter content, making it a high-quality and efficient type of coal for energy production.
Anthracite is the hardest and oldest type of coal. It is known for its high carbon content and low impurities, making it a highly efficient and valuable resource for heating and energy production.

Between 2002 and 2003, molybdenum production in the United States rose from 32,600 metric tons to 34,100 metric tons; however, production remained well below the 1999 total of 42,400 metric tons
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 League ended in 1924.
