Use a mine support to prevent mines from collapsing.
 
 
If you don't place a support in time your mine will collapse on and around the last tile you mined (shown as white particles falling over a certain tile). A collapse may cause some structures to become inaccessible if they are within range of the cave in. When you notice a collapse you have to build a Mine Support exactly on the tile with the falling particles above it; building a support anywhere else, even if the support radius will cover the affected tile, will not stop the cave in. When built properly the cave in will stop instantly.

A {{i|{{PAGENAME}}}} is a Support Beam with an 8x tile radius. Support Beams cannot be moved once they have been placed.  
  
There is a very small possibility that you can still get a cave in with a single mine support. Only areas covered by 2 supports are guaranteed to get no cave ins.[http://forum.salemthegame.com/viewtopic.php?p=183811&sid=baa8fea62dfdf82a0f7898e5d6855db1#p183811]

About

A Mine Support icon.png Mine Support is a Support Beam with an 8x tile radius. Support Beams cannot be moved once they have been placed.

Cave-Ins

Each time a Wall tile is Mine icon.png Mined there is a chance to trigger a Cave-In. A Cave-In will scatter new Rubble Walls randomly in areas that you have already Mined out around the source of the Cave-In. Being under a Cave-In when it falls will instantly cause you to become Knocked Out and will damage nearby Structures. The chance of a Cave-In happening is based off the wall's proximity to other Un-Mined Walls, its proximity to already existing Support Beam and your Mines & Mountains icon.png Mines & Mountains Proficiency. While very rare it is technically still possible to get a Cave-In while mining under the radius of a Support Beam. An impending Cave-In will be evident by a rumbling sound and dust falling from the ceiling and can be stopped by building a Support Beam directly under the exact spot where the dust is falling.
