Fuel
When used in a Minecraft:furnace as a fuel, a piece of coal lasts 80 seconds (smelting up to 8 items), like Minecraft:charcoal. Coal used as fuel lasts more than 5 times longer than wood planks or wood logs used as fuel, being more efficient than any other use of wood for smelting Template:In, but outlasted by wooden slabs Template:In. Though when smelting large amounts of items, converting the coal into a Minecraft:Block of Coal is even more efficient since 1 block of coal is made out of 9 coal but lasts 10 times as long as coal.
Coal and charcoal are also the only fuels accepted by furnace minecarts. They provide three minutes of transit each.
