Summary

The IBISWorld Global Coal Mining industry report consists of firms that mine bituminous coal, anthracite (types of black coal) and lignite (brown coal). The mining may be undertaken in a number of ways, including: underground mining (using bord-and-pillar or longwall methods); strip mining, culm bank (coal refuse pile) mining, and other surface mining. Firms in the industry may also develop coal mine sites and prepare the coal for sale by washing, screening and sizing it.
