How to mine

To actually mine you need a mine hole. Have a stone axe (slow) or pickaxe (very fast) equipped and use Adventure [A] -> Mine [M] and click on a black tile. It's best to build some fires first and take a lot of tea with you to regenerate your stamina.

Using a torch or Miner's helmet for light will help drastically when mining, particularly when working older mines whose ore deposits are located far away from the minehole. Note however that using a pickaxe requires both hands, thus making a miner's helm the only portable light source that can be used.

Note: Because World 4 has brought an entirely new mining system there is confusion. One thing to be said, you need strength in order to mine mining spots. The higher your strength is, the faster the mining spot will be mined. Also, mining spots now contain layers, you must mine all the layers before getting to the core to get some ore. Layers can sometimes contain some stone, but mostly they have nothing.

In-Game Text

"Gold gleams in the ground, and iron sleeps in the seam. Mother Nature gives not a sound, but my pick axe will make her scream."

Mining gives you the ability to mine metals in mines, that can be constructed at geology points.
