Fishing Guild

The Coal Trucks are located north of the Fishing Guild and west of McGrubor's Wood. At the coal truck mining area, there are 18 coal rocks and several carts. Coal can be deposited into the trucks and later retrieved from any truck along the mine track, allowing players to collect and bank their coal from the depot at Seers' Village.

120 coal can be stored in the carts if no Kandarin achievement diaries have been completed, though 140, 280, or 308 pieces of coal can be stored in the trucks if the easy, medium, or hard diary is completed (respectively). With the elite diary, the first 200 coal removed in a day are automatically transported to the player's bank. Though the diary reward says placed, you must first place then attempt to remove the coal from the coal truck to initiate transfer to your bank. An exploit currently exists in which a player can transport 27 additional coal if the trucks are filled up to one less than full, then an entire inventory of coal is placed in the cart.

Once the carts are full of coal, the coal may then be removed from any of the carts. A log balance shortcut just east of the coal trucks can be used at level 20 Agility to cross over towards McGrubor's Wood.

It should also be noted that there are aggressive Giant bats amongst the coal, so mining here may not be suitable for players with a low combat level.
