Revision as of 05:08, 5 April 2013
There are several mines throughout the world near major cities and players can go there to mine the resources they will need to craft items. There are three types of mines : Guarded, Unguarded, and Private mines. In the guarded ones, you can find only basic minerals and iron ore. The unguarded ones contain both basic and high quality materials. Unguarded mines are more dangerous because players can go there to kill miners.

Guarded Mines
Are guarded by NPCs in the similar manner as towns. You can wield weapons there, but attacking is not allowed and will be punished by force.
Available resources
These are the resources you can mine safely, in guarded mines :
Locations
The following list includes the location of all the game's guarded mines :
- Southwest of NCR.
- Southeast of San Francisco.
- West of Klamath.
- Southwest of Junktown.
Unguarded Mines
Unguarded mines are more dangerous because players can go there to kill miners. There are no NPC guards and it's only on the player himself to avoid death. Carrying a weapon or having a buddy to protect you is not a bad idea at all. Unguarded mines in Redding, Broken Hills and near Gecko are no-logout (your character won't disappear if you logoff there).
Available resources
These are the resources you can mine in more dangerous, unguarded mines :
- Iron Ore
- Minerals
- High Quality Iron Ore
- High Quality Minerals
- Uranium Ore only in Broken Hills mine
- Gold only in Redding mine
Locations
The following list includes the location of all the game's unguarded mines :
- East of Gecko.
- In Broken Hills.
- In Redding.
Private Mines
These can be purchased from the resident Mine Overseer, at each of the Guarded mines in the game world. The Overseer will charge you 75,000 caps for directions to the location. He will only make a deal with a character once. The resources available inside this mine will be depleted after time, but the location will remain visible to owner.
Available resources
These are the resources you can mine in your own mine:
Note: Total value of raw materials in private mines is 20k caps.
Locations
The following list includes the location of all the game's guarded mines:
- Southwest of NCR
- Southeast of San Francisco
- West of Klamath
- Southwest of Junktown
- Ghost Farm near Modoc
- A player faction Bunker Base
Mining
A player can use a Primitive Tool to mine only regular iron ore and minerals. A Sledgehammer however can be used to mine these and High Quality Iron Ore. To mine High Quality Minerals, Gold Nuggets, and Uranium Ore, a Supersledge must be used.
Alternatively, you can command your slaves to mine for you, and strangely, they don't need any tools for that. This might not work in every mine.
Every mine has an amount of available resources per pile of rocks. When these resources are depleted, it requires some time for them to respawn (usually a few minutes).

Bring a brahmin with you when mining. This will save you from going to your tent/base to unload the materials you just mined. Give everything you mined to the brahmin, and when you are done take the animal to your tent or base and unload whatever its carrying. |
