## Coal and Its Uses

Coal serves multiple purposes in Palworld. Combine it with **Ore** in an **Improved Furnace** to produce **Refined Ingots**, a vital ingredient for advanced technologies.

Unlockable at **Level 41**, the Coal Mine requires **5 Ancient Technology Points** and the following materials to construct:

- **70 Stone**
- **100 Coal**
- **30 Paldium Fragments**

Pals with the mining skill can mine Coal deposits directly or operate the Coal Mine for consistent output.
