What is a very hard rock that burns with a high heat and smoke a metamorphic rock formed from coal?
The rock you are referring to is anthracite coal, which is a type of metamorphic rock formed from coal with a high carbon content. Anthracite coal burns with a high heat and produces little smoke due to its high carbon content and low volatile matter.
Is coal a metamorphic rock?
Coal when subject to mild metamorphism turns into Anthracite, in which the carbon content is between 92% and 98%. If squeezed and heated still further, the coal will transform into graphite and of cause if the taken to extremes diamond will be produced, but that would require the coal to be taken deep into the earth's mantle.
