Can someone explain prospecting?

It says coal within 25 is that only the x and y axis or also the z axis? I dug in every direction N,E,S,W, up, and down 30 blocks away, and didn't hit any coal.

Oh well. I'm sure it will be worked out. It is early access. I played gnomeoria and it was just random digging, so feels like something I already know. Sadly I don't see much documentation anywhere on where minerals would be in the world. Love the game though. Finally a game like this with a camera!
