Your ignorance and inherent dishonesty are on display, again.
You pretend I didn't use the comparative term of cleanest, comparing what Clinton outlawed to the most common coal types used.
You: "I never have figured out why Clinton made mining the cleanest coal we know of illegal."
You made no distinction. You actually thought that one coal is more "clean" than others. I caught you and now you're squirming.
For your edification.
Anthracite: Anthracite has the highest carbon content (86% to 97%). Rare in the U.S., it comprises only 0.2% of total coal production. All the anthracite mines in the U.S. are located in northeast Pennsylvania.
Seven Billion Tons of Anthracite Coal. In 2013 the United States used less than 1 million tons of coal. So, the Anthracite at Grand Stairway Escalante was enough to last this country almost 7,000 years!!! Anthracite Coal, by the way, is virtually smoke and emission free. Pollution problem solved.
