  Anthracite \An"thra*cite\, n. [L. anthracites a kind of
     bloodstone; fr. Gr. ? like coals, fr. ?, ?, coal or charcoal.
     Cf. Anthrax.]
     A hard, compact variety of mineral coal, of high luster,
     differing from bituminous coal in containing little or no
     bitumen, in consequence of which it burns with a nearly non
     luminous flame. The purer specimens consist almost wholly of
     carbon. Also called glance coal and blind coal.
     [1913 Webster]

  Coal \Coal\ (k[=o]l), n. [AS. col; akin to D. kool, OHG. chol,
     cholo, G. kohle, Icel. kol, pl., Sw. kol, Dan. kul; cf. Skr.
     jval to burn. Cf. Kiln, Collier.]
     1. A thoroughly charred, and extinguished or still ignited,
        fragment from wood or other combustible substance;
        charcoal.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     2. (Min.) A black, or brownish black, solid, combustible
        substance, dug from beds or veins in the earth to be used
        for fuel, and consisting, like charcoal, mainly of carbon,
        but more compact, and often affording, when heated, a
        large amount of volatile matter.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     Note: This word is often used adjectively, or as the first
           part of self-explaining compounds; as, coal-black; coal
           formation; coal scuttle; coal ship. etc.
           [1913 Webster]
  
     Note: In England the plural coals is used, for the broken
           mineral coal burned in grates, etc.; as, to put coals
           on the fire. In the United States the singular in a
           collective sense is the customary usage; as, a hod of
           coal.
