Basic tools such as picks and shovels. Though, nowadays, a lot of coal mining is done mechanically, with machines ripping out the coal if the coal face is thick enough.

How deep did the coal miners have to dig to get the coal?

Depths of coal seams vary from place to place. The first coal mine in the US was in Midlothian VA, near Richmond. Coal was present on the surface- just pick it up. Later mines in that area were about 360 ft deep. Other mines are deeper- but much coal is still mined from the surface in high wall or long wall mining.

Do you buy power from coal mines?

The coal mines dig up the coal from under the earth. The coal is then sold to whoever wants it. Some industries use coal for power. Coal-fired power stations are a huge buyer of coal. They burn the coal to heat water and use the steam to turn turbines which produce electricity. This electricity is then passed on to Energy Companies who sell the power to us.
