Mining

Mining is a trade skill and allows for the harvesting of raw materials such as Stone and Ore. To mine, players will require a Mining Pick, which can be purchased from a market stall in the quarry area for 40 . 80 Stone can be sold to a trader for 40 , making mining self sustaining when first starting out.
