Coal 'seems' to be rated individully compared to other mining stocks with respect to funds for development.
We have seen this with many co's, from juniors through to the larger players.

Here's yet another example of raising cap, without (believe that's WITHOUT) diluting share holding:

""In November 2010, Novadx entered into a coal production and payment agreement pursuant to which the company sold a coal stream to Sandstorm Metals & Energy Ltd in exchange for US$38 million in advanced payments. In January and February 2011, MCoal Corporation received payments of US$5 million and US$25 million, for an aggregate amount of US$30 million, as part of the US$38.0 million advance payment. The proceeds allowed Novadx to capitalize acquisition activities, strengthen its balance sheet and finance development of its mines. Novadx expects to receive the remaining US$8 million payment upon closing of the Ikerd acquisition.""

Believe the m/cap for this one is around $13mil.
Happy to be corrected (dyor).
So while options for raising cap are put out there, here's another 'twist' :)

Cheers :)
