'''COALMINER''' is the alias of an [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] operative involved in highly classified missions, namely [[Operation: HYPODERMIC]]. Given their rather frequent correspondence, COALMINER's handler may be [[Codename: SURGEON]].

In [[2552]], COALMINER detected an intrusion into the ONI databases at [[Reach]]. While COALMINER failed to identify the intruder, the intrusion threatened to compromise HYPODERMIC. COALMINER informed SURGEON of the breach and deleted the {{UNSCShip|Circumference}} from ''[[Gamma Station]]'''s database to minimize the damage.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''pages 281-282''</ref>

This caused difficulties during the latter stages of the [[Fall of Reach]], as it prevented the [[Artificial intelligence|AI]] [[Doppler]] from erasing the ''Circumference'''s NAV database in accordance with the [[United Nations Space Command Emergency Priority Order 098831A-1|Cole Protocol]]. A [[SPARTAN-II Program|SPARTAN-II]] team was deployed to destroy the ship and suffered casualties in the process. In an indirect manner, this lapse in security inadvertently saved humanity: in the wake of the [[Space battle over Reach|mission to]] [[Gamma Station]], [[John-117]] traveled to [[Halo Array|Halo]] [[Installation 04]] aboard the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}}, which set about the final stages of the Human-Covenant War.

=== Post-war ===
===Post-war===
At some point in the post-war era, COALMINER received [[Eleventh Hour reports|a series of five reports]] from SURGEON discussing the state of the post-war galaxy.
At a later date, COALMINER received [[Codename: SURGEON's post-war analysis|series of four reports]] from SURGEON discussing the state of the post-war galaxy. In the introduction, SURGEON pondered how humanity would adapt after three decades of ceaseless war.<ref>[http://blogs.halowaypoint.com/Headlines/post/2012/10/10/The-Halo-Bulletin-101012-.aspx '''Halo Waypoint''': ''The Halo Bulletin: 10.10.12'']</ref><ref>[http://carnage.bungie.org/haloforum/halo.forum.pl?read=1157459 '''halo.bungie.org''': ''Did I just find something hidden in there?'']</ref> The first report provided intelligence on three of the Covenant's former client races.<ref>[http://blogs.halowaypoint.com/Headlines/post/2012/10/17/The-Halo-Bulletin-101712-.aspx ''The Halo Bulletin 10.17.12'']</ref> The second report detailing the origins of the [[SPARTAN-IV Program]] and the [[Spartan (branch)|Spartan branch]].<ref>[http://blogs.halowaypoint.com/Headlines/post/2012/10/25/The-Halo-Bulletin-102512-.aspx ''The Halo Bulletin 10.25.12'']</ref>
