If there's something that can make you cough, it's coal dust. Coal miners would usually get something called black lungs after a few years in the business. It happened when the dust from mined coal accumulated in the miner's lungs, causing respiratory issues.

The explosions are the real killers, though.

A full block of Coal Dust appears whenever a block of Coal Ore is mined. This can be configured in the Configurations. Because it spreads in all directions, and is extremely explosive, it is important to be mindful about torches when mining coal.

Coal Dust cannot be used as a fuel source.
