This Standard describes recommended procedures for the preparation of polished coal samples; the procedures are suitable for all ranks of coal from brown through bituminous to anthracite. The resulting polished samples are adequate for characterization of coals using various methods of incident light microscopy. Coal samples prepared according to the procedures recommended in this Standard may be used for maceral or microlithotype analysis, for measuring maceral reflectance, or for fluorescence analysis.The data obtained from such testing can be used to determine coal rank and coal composition, to correlate seams, and to provide information on the utilization characteristics of a coal.
