Coal

Coal is the critical mid-game material bottleneck, used to smelt Refined Ingots (2 Ore + 2 Coal per ingot). Mined from coal nodes in the desert and highlands. Also used for Polymer crafting and ammunition. Coal only spawns in specific locations — see the Resource Locations Guide for farming spots. Build a dedicated coal base at Twilight Dunes.
