== Overview Description ====== Description ====[[File:miningaction.jpg|500px|thumb|right|A Miner at Work]]
'''Mining''' is the skill of excavating [[rock shards]] and [[ore]] veins.
== Method ==
* Tunnels can not be opened if the north-west corner is more than 4 dirts below [[Water#Water level|water level]].
* 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.
* The maximum height of a tunnel entrance is 270 slope.
* The maximum height of an tunnel entrance is 90 slope if you plan to add a mine door.
* You may create a mine entrance up to 3 tiles wide.
** To widen a tunnel, the tile you mine must only be connected to ONE open tunnel only
** Mine doors cannot be placed on tunnel entrances that are 2 or more tiles wide.

Different ore veins have different difficulties. The easiest is mining plain rock, followed by [[iron vein]]s and [[copper vein]]s. The hardest are silver and gold. As with most things in Wurm, too low difficulty leads to reduced skill gain, while too high difficulty results in high failure rate. A failure results in a 1.00 QL by-product.

== Notes ==
* Mining can be done while moving, so long as you do not move too far away (two tiles) from the tile you are currently working on.
* See [[Mining_warnings]] for more indepth information on each situation.
