Coal ore itself can be obtained by mining it with any [[Minecraft:pickaxe]] enchanted with [[Minecraft:Silk Touch]]. When mined without Silk Touch, it drops one [[Minecraft:coal]]. It is affected by the Fortune enchantment, dropping 1–2, 1–3, or 1–4 coal respectively with Fortune I, II, and III. It also drops {{MC/Xp|0|2}} when mined. Fortune does not affect the amount of experience dropped.

Coal ore can generate in the [[Minecraft:Overworld]] in the form of ore blobs. It generates in two batches per chunk. The first batch attempts to generate 30 times per chunk in blobs of 0–37, evenly from levels 136 to 320. The second batch attempts to generate 20 times per chunk in blobs of 0–37, from levels 0 to 192, being most common at Y=96, and being less common toward either end of the range. Coal ore in this second batch is also less likely to be exposed to air: 50% of ore blocks that would generate exposed do not generate. {{MC/In|Bedrock}}, coal ore also has the third batches, which attempts to generate 20 times per chunk in blobs of size 0–37, evenly from levels 128 to 256, within any type of mountains biomes.

Coal ore can replace [[Minecraft:stone]], [[Minecraft:andesite]], [[Minecraft:diorite]], [[Minecraft:granite]], [[Minecraft:tuff]], and [[Minecraft:deepslate]]. Deepslate coal ore generates when replacing [[Minecraft:tuff]] or [[Minecraft:deepslate]], which is a rare occurrence due to the rarity of coal blobs below Y=8 where deepslate generates.

Template:For Template:Infobox block Coal ore is a Minecraft:mineral block that drops Minecraft:coal when mined.

Deepslate coal ore is a variant of coal ore that rarely generates at the top of the Minecraft:deepslate layer.

Obtaining

Breaking

Coal ore itself can be obtained by mining it with any Minecraft:pickaxe enchanted with Minecraft:Silk Touch. When mined without Silk Touch, it drops one Minecraft:coal. It is affected by the Minecraft:Fortune enchantment, dropping 1–2, 1–3, or 1–4 coal respectively with Fortune I, II, and III. It also drops Template:Xp when mined. Fortune does not affect the amount of experience dropped.

Natural generation

Template:See also Coal ore can generate in the Minecraft:Overworld in the form of Minecraft:ore blobs. It generates in two batches per chunk. The first batch attempts to generate 30 times per chunk in blobs of 0–37, evenly from levels 136 to 320. The second batch attempts to generate 20 times per chunk in blobs of 0–37, from levels 0 to 192, being most common at Y=96, and being less common toward either end of the range. Coal ore in this second batch is also less likely to be exposed to air: 50% of ore blocks that would generate exposed do not generate. Template:IN, coal ore also has the third batches, which attempts to generate 20 times per chunk in blobs of size 0–37, evenly from levels 128 to 256, within any type of Minecraft:mountains biomes.

Coal ore can replace Minecraft:stone, Minecraft:andesite, Minecraft:diorite, Minecraft:granite, Minecraft:tuff, and Minecraft:deepslate. Deepslate coal ore generates when replacing Minecraft:tuff or Minecraft:deepslate, which is a rare occurrence due to the rarity of coal blobs below Y=8 where deepslate generates.

Coal ore is also found in small amounts alongside underground Minecraft:fossils.

Usage

The primary usage of coal ore is to mine it for Minecraft:coal.

Smelting ingredient

Template:Smelting

Note blocks

Coal ore can be placed under Minecraft:note blocks to produce "bass drum" sounds.

Sulfur cube

Template:In development Minecraft:Sulfur cubes have the ability to absorb coal ore and deepslate coal ore, either through picking them up or being interacted with them. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.
