Coal seam gas (CSG) or alternatively known as coal seam methane (CSM) is natural gas sourced from coal. Methane = CH4 = H-H-C-H-H, which is the same as: conventional gas, landfill gas, peat gas. CSM is produced during the creation of coal from peat. The methane in CSM is adsorbed onto the surface of micropores in the coal. The amount of methane adsorbed increases with pressure. CSM is expelled from the seam over geologic time because coal has the capacity to hold only about a tenth of the methane it produces.
And what about the methane released when they mine coal, is that accounted for in the carbon tax?
