Any excavated Excavated cave tile that is adjacent to rock wall has a chance of caving in.
→Cave-ins: It had alot of old and wrong information about collapses, reinforced walls and how to remove them.
*If there are two lower corners identified then the opposite border will be the top of your mine opening and will be completely flat as well, leveled at lower corner of the opposite border.
*'''You cannot [[Mining#Surface_mining|surface mine]] to correct an oddly shaped entrance once it is open.''' So you must make sure to have the tile in the exact shape you want it to be before you open the mine.
*When tunelingtunneling, entrance tile is limited by reinforced cave floor as any others (requires that all four corner of the entrance tile not be also one of a reinforced tile). So, when you are tunneling an entrance from the outside and receive the message, {{event|inline|The ground sounds strangely hollow and brittle. You have to abandon the mining operation.}}, you most likely have a reinforced floor inside the tunnel you are trying to open. Enter the mine from another angle and remove the reinforced floor.*Tunel Tunneling from the outside will ever make a downgoing downwards entrance 20 slope or more, even if there is a flat cave inside. Tunnel Tunneling out from the inside will only remove the rock walls without changing the ground level.
*To correct that entry slope you can further raise the mine corner floor with concrete but if ground reach is deep underwater. If you don't want any ugly water on the floor in the mine, ensure that both lower corners of the entrance are at least at height 28 (hover the corner with the mouse).
*Each tunneling action has a chance to create a [[stone shards|stone shard]]. After a number of [[stone shards]] are created, usually 9, the message {{event|inline|You will soon create an entrance}} will appear, after 51 actions. A stone shard or two later, and an entrance will be created.
== Mining resources==
[[Ore]] is produced by mining metal ore [[vein]]s found inside of a mine. [[Marble]], [[slate]], [[rock salt (vein)|rock salt]], and [[sandstone vein|sandstone]] veins produce shards. A [[Rock salt (vein) | Rock salt]] tile has about the same amount of shards as a regular rock tile, approximately 50 shards.
*When an ore or shard vein is depleted a tunnel is created. However, a vein can take several thousand actions to deplete, so it is advised to mine around ore and shard veins for tunneling purposes.
== Cave-ins ==
*When a excavated tile caves in the , it will become either a rockwall, ore or shard vein and will need to be re-excavated. *A recently collapsed rock tile may not require as many actions to re-open, however an ore tile will likely require many hundred, or even thousand, actions to remove.*Reinforcing a cave wall with a [[support beam]] will lower prevent the chance of a cave-in on excavated tiles surrounding on north, south, east and west of that supportreinforced wall. Once rock wall is reinforced they it may not be excavatedmined, however a mayor may mine out the support should it reside on their deed. This would take approximately 50 actions just mayor or citizen can remove reinforced tiles with crowbar if they have permissions to remove the supportdo so. '''A cave wall reinforced with a [[support beam]] off deed is literally impossible to remove. Please can be mindful of thisremoved by using [[disintegrate]] spell.''' Note that underground [[highway]]s are protected from cave-ins, thus tunnels for them dont require reinforcement on side walls.*Ore and shard veins are considered similar to reinforced walls for purposes of stability.*The chance that a tile is replaced with a vein or shard other than rock is extremely low.*You also have the option to manually cave in mine collapse excavated tiles back to rock walls using the spell [[Strongwall]] or using a [[shaker orb]] which can be bought from a trader silver store for 4 silver and is a one time use item.

==PVP Servers==
* Maximum slope for surface mining is limited to your 1x mining skill on [[Chaos]]. [[Defiance]] and [[Epic]] servers and are capped at 60 slope. * There is a minimum of 3 tiles required between mine doors on all PVP servers[[Defiance]] and [[Epic]].
