Peacock Coal

Posted on December 3, 2019 by DigDigDig

Peacock coal, or Rainbow anthracite, is colorful coal sometimes found in a coal seam by miners.  It sometimes has a complete rainbow color effect.  These are rare finds for the most part.  If left outside to the elements for months or years, Blue seems to be the last color left standing.
