Although coal mining was taking place in North America as early as 1701 in Virginia, it was not until 1745 that coal was mined in the colonies on a commercial scale.
The question is ambuguous. It could meanWhat percentage of the world's coal use is in AmericaWhat percentage of America's energy needs are met by coal.Second, what is America: USA, or, more correctly, North and South Americas
Over much of eastern North America.
Plate tectonics played a crucial role in the formation of North America's coal reserves. About 300 million years ago, during the Pennsylvanian period, North America was a landmass located near the equator. The collision of tectonic plates and subsequent oceanic crust subduction created sedimentary basins that gradually filled with organic material, which eventually formed into coal deposits due to heat and pressure. Thus, plate tectonics provided the necessary geological conditions for the creation of North America's coal reserves.
