Abstract

A firelighter composition comprises a mixture of a liquid hydrocarbon and lignite. The liquid hydrocarbon preferably comprises kerosene. It has been found that lignite has the effect of extending the bum time and lowering the flame height, thereby increasing the combustion efficiency for a given weight of firelighter.
