Mining
This guide will help you get started with mining on Everfall.
Mining
General Process
- Mine ore at either of the two mining locations.
- Low-level ores can be found in the quarry pit, while higher-level ores are accessible in the mineshaft.
- Buy coal or mine it from the quarry.
- Crush your ore down into dust for easy processing.
- Some dust may need additional chemical processing to extract more valuable materials.
- Fire your ore into ingots at the blast furnace.
