Coal
Of the factors involved in coalification, temperature is much more important than either pressure or time of burial. [20] Subbituminous coal can form at temperatures as low as 35 to 80 °C (95 to 176 °F) while anthracite requires a temperature of at least 180 to 245 °C (356 to 473 °F). [21]

Managing heat exposure in coal mines
When the body's core temperature exceeds 37°C, it reacts by increasing the blood flow to the skin, thus producing sweat that cools the body when it evaporates. Most people feel comfortable when the air temperatures are between 20°C and 27°C and when the relative humidity ranges from 35 to 60 per cent.

Distributed FBG Temperature Sensor for Coal Mine Fire Detection
The coal mine fire leads to gradual increase in temperature; therefore, detection of temperature change in underground coal mines is an important concern. For this multiple fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors can be used for detecting deviation in temperature in underground coal mines to detect the coal mine fire before its combustion.

The natural temperature in the shallow subsurface is about 50 degrees F, the same temperature as well water. Coal contains a small percentage of pyrite, iron sulfide, formed in the reduced, sulfur-rich environment of a swamp where coal owes it origin. When the pyrite is exposed to oxygen in the mine, it oxidizes.

Spontaneous Combustion of Coal
Weathered coal is the coal in which the exposed surface of the coal has reached the stage of saturation and no further interaction with oxygen at ambient temperature occurs. If the heat produced due to oxidation is not dissipated by a flow of air or by the conductive properties of the coal, its temperature increases.

I've worked on some coal faces that felt hot, due to high humidity and poor ventilation. The deepest mines in the world are gold mines in South Africa, where they have extremely high ambient rock temps plus high humidity. It would be impossible to work in those mines without refridgeration air conditioning.

"Standard coal mining practice dictates that during the charging up process, hole temperatures should be measured before any loading of explosives is attempted. All holes hotter than 80°C should be abandoned and not charged. Holes above 60°C must be cooled down by means of water or other chemicals, such as Pyrocool.
