-'''Codename: COALMINER''' is an operative of [[ONI]] and a member of the highly classified project [[Operation: HYPODERMIC]] in [[2552]]. "Coalminer" informed [[Codename: SURGEON]] via encoded message of a security breach which could compromise the operation. That breach was actually [[Cortana]], having broken into the ONI database and discovering that the ''[[Circumference]]'' was an ONI [[Prowler]]. "Coalminer" then deleted the ''Circumference'' from the database of [[Reach Station Gamma]].<ref>[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], pages 281/282</ref> This later proved deleterious as NAV data aboard the ship could not be automatically destroyed by [[Doppler]] (as per the [[Cole Protocol]]) during [[The Battle of Reach]], forcing [[John-117]] to lead a team to the station and destroy that ship manually.
+{{Callsign}}
+'''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]].
-''NOTE: "Coalminer"'s name, rank, gender, and current status are unknown.''
+==Biography==
+===Human-Covenant War===
+COALMINER's earliest known activity was in [[2532]]. In [[AUTOMATED REROUTE UNSC SHIP REG-96667 ABY|a message]] to Codename: SURGEON concerning the [[SPARTAN-III Program]], COALMINER noted the early stages of preparing [[SPARTAN-III Alpha Company|Alpha Company]] were progressing satisfactorily and expressed confidence in [[Kurt-051]]'s training regimen.<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', "chapter 7"</ref>

+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 ===
+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.
