Answer:

Metallurgical coal – or coking coal – is a vital ingredient in the steel making process. Steel is an alloy based primarily on iron. As iron occurs only as iron oxides in the earth's crust, the ores must be converted, or 'reduced', using carbon. The primary source of this carbon is coking coal.
