The magma smelter is built and functions exactly like a normal Template:L, but uses Template:L instead of Template:L* as a heat source. Magma smelters must be built with their left or right center tile hanging directly over the Template:L.

(* Note that Template:L or Template:L are still required in the production of Template:L and Template:L, as part of the reaction itself)

It is not explained how it is that magma smelters are actually capable of working without refined coal, as real-life smelting generally cannot be done using heat alone, instead using coke or charcoal as a chemical reducing agent as well as fuel.
