Coal can be mined at level 30 Mining providing 50 Mining experience. After a coal rock is mined, it will take 30 seconds until it reappears. Coal is required to smelt all ores above iron (other than gold or silver), in increasing amounts. 27 pieces of coal can be stored into one inventory space by using a coal bag, obtained from Prospector Percy's Nugget Shop for 100 golden nuggets at Motherlode Mine.

Wearing either mining gloves or expert mining gloves grants a 40% chance for the rock to not deplete upon mining coal, allowing you to mine an additional coal before depleting.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

• In the game, mining coal gives a higher chance of receiving gems than other mining spots. In real life, it is the same as coal beds can usually supply the needed pressure and carbon for gems to form.
• Coal is not an ore; ore requires extraction to obtain the element, whereas coal is found in its usable form.
