'''The Mines''' are located in the north area of [[The Mountain]]s (northeast of the [[Carpenter's Shop]] and to the west of the [[Adventurer's Guild]]). They are blocked by rock debris until the 5th day of [[Spring]] (Year 1), when [[The Player]] receives a letter.

==Overview==

There are 120 floors (sometimes called levels) in the Mines. Ore type and quantity increases as [[The Player]] moves deeper into the Mines. The Mines are filled with rocks and dirt patches. Rocks can be mined with a [[Pickaxes|Pickaxe]] in order to obtain [[Stone]], ore and [[Minerals#Geodes|Geodes]]. A [[Hoes|Hoe]] can be used on dirt patches to collect [[Minerals]], [[Artifacts]], ore, [[Clay]], and [[Cave Carrot]]s.

To advance deeper in the Mines, a ladder must be revealed on each floor. The ladder will appear after breaking rocks or after defeating an enemy (killing enemies is the stamina-free option to finding ladders). If a floor is "infested" or "overrun" by monsters, all enemies must be defeated on that floor before a ladder will appear. (Note, however, that there is a bug that affects very few floors where a ladder will drop before all enemies are killed.)

All gems are found except [[Diamond]]s when [[The Player]] has reached the bottom of the Mines. Beach forage such as [[Seaweed]], [[Coral]], [[Nautilus Shell]], [[Rainbow Shell]], [[Oyster]], [[Cockle]] and [[Clam]] spawn. There is a very small chance that a [[Pearl]] can spawn. [[Radioactive Ore]] begins to appear on any floor that is not a multiple of 5.

===Staircases===

===Staircases===

If [[The Player]] has reached at least [[Mining]] skill level 2, floors can be skipped by using [[Staircase]]s (crafted from 99 [[Stone]]). A staircase allows instant access to the next floor in the Mines. After every 5 floors, an elevator will be available, allowing access to that floor at any time.
