Coal is a resource found in underground seams. It spawns abundantly in Wetlands and in Grasslands that are wide enough (not the beach grasslands found around some Biomes). It can be mined with any pickaxe.

Strategy

If a Coal deposit can be found early game, it is useful as fuel in crafting stations such as the Campfire, Bloomery and Kiln. Once the Blast Furnace is built, Coal is outclassed by the availability of Charcoal.

Location

The information here is based on default ("vanilla") settings and may not be accurate in worlds with custom configurations or mods enabled.

Grasslands

Coal can only be found in the Grasslands biome within Sandstone. According to game files, Coal has a 70% chance to spawn in bands 13-16 blocks below the surface. Coal bands spawn in a very limited depth range compared to metal ores. Bands (seams) of Coal may extend horizontally to reach other biomes and vertically to reach lower or greater depths.
