Notable features Stone and Coal rocks, Old Miner, Mining Hard Hat rare drop
Entry requirement None

The Mine is the underground mining cave on the Mainland — the place where every new miner starts. Its entrance is a stone hill with a timber-framed cave mouth, marked on the world map with a pickaxe icon. Inside, the Old Miner teaches Mining and hands out a free starter Pickaxe, and the cave floor is dotted with rock nodes to swing it at.

The Mine follows the Mainland's safe rules — no PvP, and nothing is lost here.

The Old Miner

The Old Miner stands in the north of the cave. Talk to him to learn Mining and receive a free Pickaxe; if you later lose your pickaxe, he will hand out a replacement. See Old Miner for his full dialogue and services.

Mining

The cave holds a fixed layout of rock nodes, from single rocks up to larger clusters — bigger rocks take more swings and give more material before they crumble. Mined-out rocks respawn. Rocks with dark veins carry Coal; plain rock gives Stone.

Rock Yield Mining level XP per mined-out rock
Plain rock Stone None 20
Dark-veined rock Coal None 25

Any pickaxe works here, including the starter Pickaxe. For Iron Ore you need Frostmere's rocks (Mining 5), and for Silver Ore the Dunes (Mining 20) — The Mine itself is stone and coal country.

Rare drop
