I'm not really sure if this would help but the name gives me a few ideas!

Coalwood suggests that there are many coal mines in the woods! I know it sounds obvious but I think terraining should be based around that!

Also, maybe your miner should mine in the mine, but when he hits the wall he heres a rumbling sound and rushes outside. Then the player gains control!

Why not...

A lonely miner is working overtime for his sadistic boss in the many mines of Coalwood. Suddenly he steps on something. He peers down to see it is a land mine! He panics and runs for cover. After it goes off, he realises that his exit route is blocked, but the tremors have unblocked a new tunnel!

As he progresses, he blames himself for his situation, but slowly uncovers a conspiracy invloving explosives, his boss, mass murder and a dull diamond broach.
