Gives a method, using a graticule with 20 crossline intersections, for determining the proportions of microlithotypes, carbominerite and minerite in coals.

This document specifies a method, using a graticule with 20crossline intersections, for determining the proportions of microlithotypes, carbominerite and minerite in coals. It applies only to determinations made on polished particulate blocks using reflected white light (about 400nm to 700nm). Additional blue, blue-violet or UV light excitation (365nm to 440nm) for better identification of liptinite in fluorescence may be used especially at low rank coals.
