Go mining in a cave anywhere you want

Coal is an ore that has the same appearance as stone, except for the black splotches in it. It is mineable with any pickaxe, but if you break it with anything other than a pickaxe it will break and not drop anything. It is found at any level in the world, just keep mining and you will find some.

Guest answered:

If you mine deep enough into the ground you will hit rock. Mine around into that and you can also find coal.

U need pick axe to get stone too?
Guest said: 13th Aug 2016 | REPORT
Yes
Guest answered:

You have to mine coal with a pickaxe, same goes for stone, you maybe need a stone pickaxe I'm not sure. You do need a stone one for iron, and an iron one for diamond.

Guest answered:

You have to dig pretty deep whith a pickaxe

Guest answered:

I believe there is a chance of receiving coal if you strike gravel with a stone or ++ shovel, much like receiving seeds from grass. I may be wrong though

If u want make a furnace u will need 8 blocks of cobblestone
Guest answered:

Just Dix down a few blocks until you find stone once you find stone dig down about 1-8 blocks and then dig around you. It worked about 1/2 or 1/3 times. When I do I either find coal, iron ore or coal and iron ore at the same time.

Perfect thank you
Queen of minecraft answered:

This has happened to me to but then I figured out that you can find coal on the outside of a mountain only a little bit it's usually really high so I would suggest you lf you looked up. You can also find it by going down diagonally. Well I hope it helped you.😝😜😋

Guest answered:

You have to use a pickaxe otherwise it doesn't come out, and you can find coal as these blocks of stone with black dots on them. They are found on high mountains or while Mining.
Hope I helped!!! Smile

Coal is found by digging down into dirt. You can also look at mountains of stone, and if you see black dots, you have found coal. You can also put wood in a furnace, and get fuel, which can also be used to make torches,

Guest answered:

Coal can be found underground. It's the black ore.

Coal is an ore that has the same appearance as stone, except for the black splotches in it. It is mineable with any pickaxe, but if you break it with anything other than a pickaxe it will break and not drop anything.
