Important place for getting fresh coal out of a mine (7)
I believe the answer is:
capitol
'important place for' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'fresh coal out of a mine' is the wordplay.
'fresh' is an anagram indicator (a fresh re-ordering of the letters).
'out of' indicates putting letters inside (some letters on the outside of others).
'a mine' becomes 'pit' (down the pit).
'coal' with letters rearranged gives 'caol'.
'caol' enclosing 'pit' is 'CAPITOL'.
'getting' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for capitol that I've seen before include "where state legislature sits" , "government building" , "US Congress building" , "US Senate and House of Representatives building" , "Home of the US Congress" .)
