The Huber Breaker was a coal breaker and landmark located in the borough of Ashley, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, in the United States.

Run-of-mine coal arriving at the breaker was washed and cleaned to remove impurities, principally slate. It was crushed and screened to specific sizes desired by customers.

The former corporation's name is derived from its unique practice of spraying its processed coal with a blue iridescent chemical to be sold as "Blue Coal." It processed 7,000 tons of anthracite coal per day. Railcars were loaded underneath the breaker and shipped to markets. The long decline of the anthracite industry after World War II caused Blue Coal to declare bankruptcy and cease operations in 1976.
