Notes:
Coal mining in Labuan was started in 1847 by the Eastern Archipelago Company.
Labuan & Borneo Ltd., was liquidated in 1902 and was succeeded by the Labuan Coalfields Co. Ltd.
A maximum of 5,000 tons of coal a week was produced.
Coal mining ended in 1911 because of frequent problems due to sea water seeping into the mines.
