Stone and Iron Ore
Production of stone and iron ore
Stones are needed by the guild masters to build larger Factorys. Stone deposits can be found in your settlement using large and small stones or rocks.
In order to mine stone, you must build a 'quarry on each deposit.
The quarry workers need tools and food for their work.
Both at the quarry and at the iron mine it is possible that a little gold ore is found by chance. If you then have no mineable stone deposits on your island, you have to switch to the Brickyard, which then supplies you with clay bricks. For this you first need the charcoal burning, a clay pit and the brickyard. When your Ore deposits are exhausted, you can "activate" the 'deep Ore Mine or buy the geologist (400 Ore) or the geologist team (800 Ore) or the geologist (Stone) from the Shop.
Iron ore, like stone, requires a deposit. You can build a 'mine' on an ore deposit.
To mine iron ore, you'll also need tools and food for the miners. For example, iron ore will later be processed into iron in the 'Forge' and in the Foundry.
Production of stone and iron ore
Stone Needed: Tool: 1 - Food: 1 Produced: Stone: 2 - Duration: 60 min |
Iron ore Needed: Tool: 1 - Food: 3 Produced: Iron ore: 1 - 4 - Duration: 30 min |
Select the quarry or the ore mine in your settlement and click on the - or on the -symbol and the miners will start working immediately, if you provide them with enough tools and food.
You can initially process iron ore in Forge. If you also have a foundry, you can process both iron ore (also makes more in one pass) and gold ore and mint coins there.
