Coal is a natural resource most commonly obtained through mining. It is primarily useful in the production of Molten Iron and Molten Copper with additional uses in Cement, Diesel, Molten Glass, Molten Silicon, Rubber. and Graphite. If you have the ore sorting setting enabled you will need a Ore Sorting Plant to separate the different ores.

In the very early game, players will typically create Coal by the burning of Wood in a Coal Maker until they have sufficient resources to mine it directly. However, Wood is also required for the crafting of Construction Parts so burning all of the trees on the island can lead to significant hurdles in building infrastructure.

Island reserves

Main article: Home Island

Each Home Island contains varying amounts of natural resources. The amount of resources mined by Excavators is modified by the ore mining yield modifier on the Game Difficulty screen. On the other hand, the amount of Crude Oil (and maybe Water?) is modified by the Extra Starting Materials modifier on the Game Difficulty screen. Any modifier cannot be changed once the island has been founded.

All maps have been updated for U3/0.7 (larger, with added Bauxite, Titanium Ore and Uranium Ore deposits), with the addition of Dragontail Isle, and removal of Insula Mortis. Armageddon was also added in an earlier update.

The Crater map is Supporter Edition only. Ask someone who has it to update+fill in the data and update the map image.

All numbers in the table are in units of millions (1=1,000,000). Note that only Dragontail Isle and Curland have ocean oil deposits.


It should be noted that most of the above natural resources are non-renewable. But there are alternative ways to get unlimited resources.
