Tin mining is one of the earliest type of mining operated in Malaysia, starting in the 1820s in Perak and in 1824 in Selangor. The development of mining industries in Malaysia attracted many Chinese immigrants who came to the state in 18th and 19th centuries to work and develop the mine fields.
Coal (from the Old English term col, which has meant "mineral of fossilized carbon" since the 13th century) is a combustible black or brownish-black sedimentary rock usually occurring in rock strata in layers or veins called coal beds or coal seams.The harder forms, such as anthracite coal, can be regarded as metamorphic rock because of later exposure to elevated temperature and pressure.
Mining production in Malaysia decreased 6.70 percent in August of 2020 over the same month in the previous year. Mining Production in Malaysia averaged -0.65 percent from 2011 until 2020, reaching an all time high of 16.20 percent in July of 2013 and a record low of -22.20 percent in May of 2020.

It is about 50 km from Kuala Lumpur. Coal was first discovered in 1908. British authorities found that the area had large deposits of coal reserves that could be commercially viable and fuel a railway system. Hence, British authorities established mining operations here and the town was established.
The history of coal mining goes back thousands of years. It became important in the Industrial Revolution of the 19th and 20th centuries, when it was primarily used to power steam engines, heat buildings and generate electricity. Coal mining continues as an important economic activity today.
The largest reserves of coal are located in Merit Pila, Sarawak and in Maliau and Malibau, Sabah. Production in 2016 decreased to 2,414,765 tonnes from 2,559,444 tonnes produced in 2015 that came from eight mines, all in Sarawak. Malaysia import large quantities of coal for its domestic requirements.
The history of coal mining goes back thousands of years, with early mines documented in ancient China, the Roman Empire and other early historical economies. It became important in the Industrial Revolution of the 19th and 20th centuries, when it was primarily used to power steam engines, heat buildings and generate electricity. Coal mining continues as an important economic activity today, but has begun to decline due to the strong contribution coal plays in global warmingand environmental issues, which resu

The Chinese, though, are suspected to have been involved in the surface mining of coal as far back as 3490 B.C. Some of the early forms of coal mining include drift mining, which will often involve a horizontal passageway that follows the bed of coal, or an ore vein, for instance; bell pit mining; and shaft mining, which would often incorporate
Longwall mining is a form of underground coal mining where a long wall of coal is mined in a single slice (typically 0.6–1.0 m (2 ft 0 in–3 ft 3 in) thick). The longwall panel (the block of coal that is being mined) is typically 3–4 km (1.9–2.5 mi) long and 250–400 m (820–1,310 ft) wide.

In 1846 the Sultan, at a British request, ceded to Great Britain the island of LABUAN (92 sq km). It was of importance as a COAL STATION, for British steamers to refuel; for this Labuan was excellently suited, as it provided both a deep sea harbour and coal mines on the island (coal was found in 1847, the mine operated 1849-1911).

The history of Labuan city dates back to the time when it was a part of the Majapahit Empire; the island became a coal mining centre and was also used as naval base by the British and in 1963 it became a part of Malaysia. Later, in 1984, the island was
