Research continued on multi-parameter on-line coal bulk analysis. The thermal neutron flux distribution in coal and free air for two types of neutron sources was performed. The MCNP code was used to calculate the gamma ray response function and to determine the thermal neutron flux in coal when a lead collimator was used and when paraffin blocks were placed in front of the sample. The identification of chlorine in coal is discussed along with the analysis of the gamma spectra.
