Abstract
► The Bolsovian/Asturian No. 5 Block coal is found in eastern Kentucky. ► It is among the splint coals of the central Appalachians. ► Splint coals are noted for thick, megascopically dull lithotypes. ► Microscopically, the lithotypes are inertinite rich. ► Inertinite maceral assemblages have fire- and degradation-derived inertinites.
