The technique of /sup 252/Cf plasma desorption mass spectrometry has been applied to the direct analysis of several samples of coal and to one demineralised coal sample. The results are discussed and it is suggested that they show the potential of the technique for the analysis of coal structure, and particularly for analysing structural changes after various treatments. Further work is required.
