Mineral matter has been isolated using low temperature (radio-frequency) oxidation or hydrogen peroxidation techniques and the species present identified by x-ray diffraction. The mineral matter assemblage determines to a great extent the fusion characteristics of the ash. The influence of the minerals on coal preparation and coking properties is briefly discussed, as well as the potential of mineral matter studies in coal seam correlation.
