What minerals makeup anthracite coal?
Coal is not made up of minerals. It is primarily carbon along with other hydrocarbons. I should clarify something: Owain’s answer lists a bunch of minerals that may be found in coal. I don’t dispute that, but in fact not one of those minerals is essential to anthracite, or even a majority ingredient. You could make a very interesting rock specimen from those minerals that were listed, but it would not be coal. The thing that makes coal coal is organic carbon and other hydrocarbons, which are not minerals.
