Pennsylvania's abundant mineral resources helped make the state an industrial powerhouse. The most plentiful mineral is coal. Bituminous coal beds make up more than one-fourth of Pennsylvania's area, and the state mines virtually all of the country's anthracite coal. However, production of both types of coal has declined significantly since peak production in the early 20th century. The first commercial oil well in the United States was drilled near Titusville in northwestern Pennsylvania in 1859, sparking the country's first oil boom. The state's oil fields are now nearly exhausted, but natural gas production remains significant. Pennsylvania has also been a major producer of such nonmetallic minerals as limestone, cement, and sand and gravel.
