Three materials A, B and C are present in a combination in their relative molar ratio A:B:C, in which B and C cover a range. I am looking for some elegant expressions of the range. I would not want to express it in the form 1:2.0-5.0:3.0-6.0, which, I feel, appears a little wierd. Any better expressions would be highly appreciated.

I would present ratios in trems of corresponding percentage ranges with the lower % for each component the same for all three (only where possible).
e.g 1:2-5:3-6 will roughly translate into 16% A (never define component % as fixed), 32 to 42% B and 42-52% C.

Thanks for that.
If I describe it plainly as
"A combination comprising materials coal(A), copper(B) and glass(C), the materials being present in their molar ratio a:b:c, wherein a is 1.0, b is in the range 2.0 to 5.0 and c is in the range 3.0 to 6.0" does it sound okay?

You don't really need to present them all at the same time. You present each separately. Give a first broad range for each, then a more narrow range for each.
so say A is present in 1-60 (for example) wt% based on the total weight of the composition, specifically 5-50, more specifically etc. Then do the same for B and C. Easier to prosecute if you need to amend your ranges in the claims. You can then add another embodiment where you say the ranges of A and B and C relative to each others. It's good to start off broad without being indefinite, instead of limiting yourself from the getgo.
