I For all three <strong>coal</strong>s, <strong>the</strong> predominant mineral species observed in <strong>the</strong> (100nm<br />

size range would not be predicted from <strong>the</strong> results <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> chemical analyses <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> high temper<strong>at</strong>ure ash <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>coal</strong>s. None <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> major elements (Z>ll) observed<br />

(with <strong>the</strong> exception <strong>of</strong> sulfur in <strong>the</strong> Ba,S-rich particles) constitutes more than 10%<br />

Of <strong>the</strong> HTA for <strong>the</strong> respective <strong>coal</strong>s; indeed, Ba in <strong>the</strong> lignite, Ti in <strong>the</strong> bitu-<br />

minous <strong>coal</strong>, and Ca in <strong>the</strong> semianthracite all make up less than 1% <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> respec-<br />

tive ashes.<br />
