Coal is a common early-game resource found in the world which is used for advanced smelting or power generation. It can power Coal Generators and vehicles. It burns for four seconds in a Coal Generator.
For more details about Coal power, see Coal Generator.
Obtaining
Resource acquisition
Coal can be harvested by hand (default E) in trace amounts from resource deposits scattered across the world, or from inexhaustible resource nodes on which Miners can be constructed to extract automatically.

Tips
- Some Coal nodes are blocked by boulders which can be detonated using a Nobelisk Detonator.
- Most Coal nodes are near the water, except some at the Grass Fields and Dune Desert. It is advised to avoid these nodes when setting up Coal power.

History
- Patch 0.3.4.9: Reverted to the old mesh as of 0.3.4.7, improved icon readability
- Patch 0.3.4.7: New mesh and icon introduced
- Patch 0.3: Fuel value was re-balanced to 300, from 270. The resulting burn time however was reduced due to increased Coal Generator power output.
- Patch 0.2.1.19: New mesh and icon introduced
