They burn propane fuel, white gas, or simply kerosene to produce heat. This heat in turns causes the mantles to produce light.  Gas lanterns use mantles instead of limestone blocks. A ceramic that encases the flame produced by the lantern are the mantles. Mantles are silk fabric sacks saturated with different kinds of oxides.  When the mantle is installed and ignited the silk, the brittle ceramic shell is left behind. The shell is very effective in producing the light because of the contained chemicals and the wide area of the mesh. The mantles are very efficient in producing the light from the heat they actually receive.
