Mining
With  Any Pickaxe equipped clicking the  Mine action will change your cursor into a pickaxe, which can then be right-clicked on any wall within a  Mine Entrance to begin Mining. The Phlegm this will drain is dependent on what Mine level you are on and can be lowered by increasing your Mining Artifact Bonus. Once you have finished Mining you will automatically  Lift out the appropriate  Ore Boulder based on the wall type you just Mined. Unlike other walls, Hard Rubble Wall must be softened before Mining by lighting a  Pile of Wood at its base and letting it burn down. Each time any wall is Mined there is a chance to cause a Cave-In or spawn  Bats.
Ore Boulders
With  Any Axe or Any Pickaxe equipped right-click a Ore Boulder and select "Chip" to receive up the appropriate  Any Ore or  Rubble. When Chipping any Boulder there is a chance to receive a  Sterling Geode,  Whetstone at the same Purity as the Boulder, or rarely an  Arcane Amethyst during a  Blood Moon. Alternatively you may load any Boulder into a  Stamp Mill, or blow it up with a  Lit Boomstick, these ways are faster but will not yield any rares.
Ore Metals
Ore Metals are Metal Bars that can be made from Metal Ore Mined straight from the earth. Any Ore Chipped from an Ore Boulder can be smelted in a lit  Ore Smelter to make Ore Metal Bars.
