# Resource Mining

### Resource mining

Users can mine basic resources from their own resource land. Resources are only mined for Mountain, River/Ocean tiles with a combined tile price of at least $10 (100 MTK) based on the purchase price.&#x20;

Acquire resources by purchasing pickaxes and placing them in resource tiles. The pickaxe works when the land is on sale, and resources can be acquired based on the number of tiles and the statistics of the [pickaxe](https://undefined-21.gitbook.io/metaverse2-whitepaper-eng/item/pickaxe).

When mining resources, unidentified rare resources are mined with a low probability, and the mining probability increases as the tile price increases. Unidentified rare resources can be converted into gems through the appraisal function in the 'Special Factory'.

\*The mining probability of primary resources varies from city to city, and the probability may be adjusted by the city mayor for a certain period of time.

### History

2022.11.10

└ Since the pickaxe update on November 8, conditions for mining unidentified rare resources have been reorganized. Previously, unidentified rare resources were mined only on resource land worth more than $10 per tile, but from November 8th, unidentified rare resources will also be mined on resource land worth less than $10 per tile. However, there is a low probability of mining unidentified rare resources for resource land less than $10 per tile, and when it is more than $10 per tile, the probability is corrected and applied as the default. The probability of mining unidentified rare resources is affected by the price of 'individual' price.
