SimCity 261: Coal Mine

At the launch of every city, you are given a readout of the resources in your area. Coal is one such resource and, once you determine where the coal is in your city site, you'll need a way to extract it.

Coal Mine

Coal mines are the first step in coal extraction. They are clumsy and inefficient, but they'll get you started in setting up the basic network that allows you to dig up, transport, and sell or use coal.

In the image above, I have added every module available to the coal mine. That includes four conveyor belt towers, four truck garages, and a sign so that I remember what it is I do there.

Metal HQ

The metal headquarters building includes coal under it's umbrella of influence. To upgrade to an advanced coal mine, you're going to have to pony up not only the money for the headquarters building itself but also one of its upgrades -- which costs 200,000 simoleans. It's a tall feat, but it's worth it.
