A '''mining facility''' (or simply a '''mine''') is a type of special facility managed by the [[Engineering Corps|Engineering Corps's Mining Crew]]. Mining facilities are located directly above a series of mineshafts, where mineral raw materials - [[ore]] - are extracted via [[mining]] and stored, before being processed by other industries.
Mining facilities are differentiated by the number of levels they reach underground. It is presently unknown if there is a limit to how deep a mining facility can reach.
==== Vertiports ====
The mining facility elevator serves as an access point to the different mine levelsactual mines. See [[Mining]] for details.
Levels:
* 0: [[Mining facility]]
* -1 to -xx: Mine level 1 to xx. Deeper mine levels must be accessed with stairways further into the facility
** The exact number of mine levels depends on the mining facility. See [[Mining facility#Locations|this list]] to find the levels in each facility.
