==About==
You need to build a [[Mine Entrance]] before you can enter a mine.<br/>
Allows you to get [[Ore Boulder]]s from walls in a mine.<br/>
To do so build a  [[Pile of Wood]] nearby the wall and let the fire burn out, after which cracks in the walls will show them selves, and it is from these you can actually mine.

[[File:InsideMine.png]]

The image above shows a character inside a mine lighting a fire against a wall. Once the fire burns out, any wall tile which touches the fire becomes cracked, as shown on the other wall on the right side. Cracked wall tiles can then be mined by using the Adventure -> Mining menu option. Once you finish mining the cracked wall tile, your character carries a large [[Ore Boulder]] which you can drop somewhere and then chip 20 pieces of ore from, or dump into a [[Stamp Mill]] for automated processing.
