“China's coal consists of the majority being bituminous coal. About 20% is anthracite coal, and lignite coal makes up the smallest portion
Since 1949, China has suffered mostly from a shortage of coking coal. Coking coal is an important part required for the steel industry. A shortage of coking coal has limited the growth of the steel industry in China. Another problem with China's coal resources is its unusual location. Approximately 80% of China's coal resources are located in mountainous regions far away from the industrial centers. Therefore, it costs these industries more money in shipping since they need to transport the coal a good distance.”
"Bituminous coal is a relatively hard coal containing a tar-like substance called bitumen. It is of better quality than lignite coal but of poorer quality than anthracite coal."
