Coal can be mined at level 30 Mining providing 50 Mining experience. After coal rocks are 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.
Members can store 27 pieces of coal in one inventory space by using a coal bag, obtained from Prospector Percy's Nugget Shop for 100 golden nuggets at Motherlode Mine.
Wearing mining gloves, superior mining gloves, or expert mining gloves while mining coal rocks makes the rock not deplete upon mining coal, allowing you to mine one, two, or three additional coal, respectively, before depleting.

Coal can also be "purchased" by running your kingdom. Kingdom effective GP/resource rates can be difficult to determine because you have to "buy" multiple resources at the same time, but assuming 5 workers are put on coal, the maximum value of 75,000 is deducted from the treasury each day, and the 50,000 invested in other resources breaks even, the kingdom returns 273 coal per day at a cost of 25,000, or 91.6 GP/coal.

Trivia
- Coal is not an ore; ore requires extraction to obtain the element, whereas coal is found in its usable form.
