Progress is reported on the solubilization and depolymerization of coal by fungi. It is postulated the the solubilization and depolymerization are separate events. Other objectives include the determination of the role that laccases and peroxidases exert, to access the role of oxygen radicals and oxygen species, and to characterize the solubilization products formed
