General Description of Mining
- Anyone can see what type of ore mine it is. These mines do not crumble so there is no repair cost.
- When dowsing with Perception 'Unrecognizable ore' is the required Perception divided by 2 and rounded down. That's the current theory.
- Work the Mine, Normal hotkey [W] to get the first set or new set of ore stones. There should be an option for Color Blind Mode. (There is, but you need to do a GM call to get it set for you permanently)
- Minimum number of Ore Stones in a successful Workload for any ore seems to be a minimum of 3 Ore Stones chosen. (In Beta, Silver required 4 stones)
- Gems and coal are produced when one of the Ore Stones crumbles. When a specific Ore Stone has been selected in a correct workload 7 times it crumbles. (In Beta, Lithium stone crumbled after only 3 workloads)
| Region | Gem |
| Alcyone | Topaz |
| Celeano | Emerald |
| Maia | Ruby |
| Merope | Sapphire |
| Sterope | Quartz |
| Taygete | Opal |
| Sinai | Diamond |
Note: On 4:06PM Year 1, Akhet II-14 teppy corrected his bug that topaz gems were not in egypt and announced in System that Alcyone gems changed. He told Sprocket that it was a bug and flipped a coin to decide either Sterope or Alcyone. Alcyone won. "Scientists at the Alcyone University of Harmony note geological changes among mines in the region."
| Ore Type | Number of Ore Stones in a set | Varying Characteristics | Characteristic Rules for a Successful Workload |
| Aluminum | 9 | 4 Stone Colours, 4 Stone Shapes, 4 Base Colours | All Same or All Different |
| Copper | 8 | 3 Stone Colours, 4 Stone Shapes | All Same or All Different |
| Iron | 7 | 3 Stone Colours, 3 Crystal Shapes | All Same or All Different |
| Lead | 9 | 4 Stone Colours, 4 Stone Shapes, 3 Crystal Colours | All Same or All Different |
| Platinum | 12 | 5 Stone Colours, 5 Stone Patterns, 5 Crystal Colours, 5 Base Shapes | Some Same and Some Different |
| Tin | 9 | 4 Stone Colours, 4 Stone Pattern | All Same or All Different |
| Titanium | 12 | 5 Stone Colours, 5 Stone Shapes, 5 Base Colours, 5 Base Shapes | All Same or All Different |
| Zinc | 10 | 3 Stone Colours, 3 Base Shapes, 3 Crystal Colours | All Same or All Different |

Playing the Mining Game
- We will use a Copper Mine in this example. Copper Mines use the Ore Stone characteristics of body colours and body shapes. You will always play the Mining Game with this type of mine with those characteristics. In the chart above, successful workloads will have characteristics that are either all the same or all different for copper.
- Click on the Mine and choose Work this Mine, Normal [W] to bring out a new Ore Stone set.
- Left-click the stones that you think will be either All Same or All Different as in the chart above for this Ore Stone Set and choose Add this to the Workload [A]. In this example I chose All Different for both colour and shape, so all stone shapes must be different and all stone colors must be different (yellow, purple, blue). A blue rotating ring appears around each stone you choose. Two Ore Stones have been chosen and a blue Ore Stone is about to be chosen.
- Left-click the last Ore Stone and choose Add this to the Workload and Finalize [S]. If you chose a correct set of Ore Stones then you will see the flyaway message as below! You win some ore! The ore amount is added into the pot and you can Take.
| Ore Type | Region | Coords | Nearest landmark |
| Lead | Merope | -1570 5300 | UBody-has compound with bullet furnaces and a hearth for cc. Please bring b&b to help maintain as it has no cornerstone |
| Iron | Alcyone | 1783, 2038 | Flash Back Fonderie - 3 Compression furnace, 8 Bullet furnace |
| Copper | Alcyone | 1798, 2030 | Flash Back Fonderie - 3 Compression furnace, 8 Bullet furnace |
| Tin | Alcyone | 1819, 2015 | Flash Back Fonderie - 3 Compression furnace, 8 Bullet furnace |
| Tungsten | Alcyone | 1068, 2251 | Smelting facilities planned but not builded yet |
| Platinum | Sterope | 1070, -2282 |
