This mineral is extracted directly from the mines and contains a high proportion of carbon, low volatility and low sulfur content, which give it excellent properties for use in reduction processes or as a source of energy.
Depending on the origin of the mining basin, there are three types of anthracite:
- Low volatile contents
This type of anthracite is especially suitable for carbon/reduction contribution, such as steel, metal and chemicals
| COMPOSITION | |
|---|---|
| Moisture | 10% |
| Ash | 2-10% |
| Volatiles | 2-3% |
| Sulfur | 1% max |
| Fixed carbon | 88% |
| Pcs kcal/kg | 7000 |
- Medium volatile content
Particularly indicated for domestic use, both for its ash content and its higher volatile level, although it can be used in industry.

This ore is extracted directly from the mines and contains a high rate of carbon, low volatility, and low sulfur content, which give it excellent properties for use in reduction processes, and also as a source of energy.
Depending on the origin of the mining basin, three types of anthracite qualities are identified, namely:
- Low volatile matter content
This type of anthracite is particularly suitable for carbon supply/reductant applications, such as in the iron and steel industry, metallurgy and chemistry.
| COMPOSITION | |
|---|---|
| Humidity | 10% |
| Ashes | 2-10% |
| Volatile materials | 2-3% |
| Sulfur | 1% max |
| Fixed carbon | 88% min. |
| PCS | 7000 min. |
- Medium volatile matter content
This type of anthracite is particularly suitable for domestic use, both for its ash content and for its high level of volatile matter, which allows it to be used in industry.
| COMPOSITION | |
|---|---|
| Humidity | 8% |
| Ashes | 5-10% |
| Volatile materials | 2-3% |
