==Overview==
There are a total of 120 floors total (sometimes called levels), in the Mines. Ore quality (type) and quantity increases as the player moves deeper into the Mines. The Mines are filled with rocks and dirt patches. Rocks can be mined with a [[Tools#Pickaxes|pickaxe]] in order to obtain [[stone]], ore and [[Minerals#Geodes|geodes]]. A [[Tools#Hoes|hoe]] can be used on dirt patches to collect [[minerals]], [[artifacts]], ore, [[clay]], and [[Cave Carrot|cave carrot]]s.
To advance deeper in the Mines, a ladder must be revealed on each floor. The ladder will sometimes appear when rocks are broken or after an enemy is defeated (killing enemies is the stamina-free option to finding ladders). If a floor is "infested" or "overrun" by monsters, all enemies must be defeated on that floor before a ladder will appear.
