Pencil lead does not have coal. Pencil lead contains graphite.
The "lead" is a mixture of GRAPHITE and CLAY. It is squirted out like spaghetti and baked hard.

You can obtain graphite from an ordinary pencil lead, is made from graphite (not lead).Graphite is a natural occurring mineral and it is mined just like any other industrial mineral.
The part of the pencil that does the actual writing, called the pencil lead, is actually made of a mineral called graphite.
