Once the [[Quarrying]] Skill has be learned you can {{i|Dig}} {{i|Stone Boulder}}s from a {{i|Quarry}} or {{i|Mountain}}. With the [[Granite Excavation]] Skill learned there is a chance to get a {{i|Granite Boulder}}s when Digging on Quarries. Learning [[Ambitious Excavation]] will help you Dig out Boulders faster and increases the chance to get larger Lime Boulders from Lime Pits.
 
 
 
With the [[Quarrying]] Skill learned {{i|Lime Pit}}s can be Dug for {{i|Lime Boulder}}s. Lime Boulders Dug from a Lime Pit come in variable sizes, with the bigger Lime Boulders giving more {{i|Lime}} when Chipped, ranging from 100 to 5. From left to right, 100, 25, 15, 10 and 5 pieces. The higher your [[Mines & Mountains]] Proficiency the better the chance of Digging up bigger Lime Boulders.
