What is another word for stove coal?
Pronunciation: [stˈə͡ʊv kˈə͡ʊl] (IPA) 
Stove coal, also known as anthracite coal or black diamond, is a specific type of coal commonly used to heat homes and businesses. However, there are other types of coal that can also be used, such as bituminous coal and lignite coal. Bituminous coal is a softer coal that burns efficiently but can create more soot and ash than stove coal. Lignite coal, on the other hand, is the softest coal and burns less efficiently than stove coal. Other synonyms for stove coal include hard coal, metallurgical coal, and steam coal. When choosing a coal for heating, it's important to consider the quality, cost, and availability of each type.
