The United States coal reserves are massive. Proven reserves are enough to last 200 to 250 years at current rates of consumption. Proven reserves are probably only 50-60% of actual technically recoverable reserves. There has been debate on the issue however the majority of experts are pretty well in agreement. The raw number is 275,000,000,000 Tons of proven coal.

No, there are more known oil reserves in Illinois than coal reserves. Illinois has significant crude oil reserves, particularly in the southern part of the state, while its coal reserves have decreased due to mining activities.
It was predicted that our coal resources will last for around 250 years more. I am reluctant to agree with this statement though. Our oil reserves are expected to run out within the next 50 years if technology does not advance enough to give us alternatives. When this happens, our coal consumption will rise and exhaust the reserves much sooner than predicted.
The largest reserves of coal are found in the United States, Russia, Australia, China, and India. These countries account for the majority of the world's coal reserves.
Wyoming has the most coal reserves in the United States. The Powder River Basin in Wyoming is the largest coal mining region in the country and holds a significant portion of the nation's coal reserves.
The country with the largest known coal reserves in the world is the United States.
No, coal is a finite resource and will eventually run out. Estimates vary, but experts agree that coal reserves will not last indefinitely. This is one reason why there is a push towards using renewable energy sources that are more sustainable in the long term.
