Quarry

Quarry
Details
Quarries extract resources from the ground
Require:	Open mining
Construction:	Mineral, Pickaxe
Produces:	Clay, Coal, Nickel
Category:	Buildings

Quarries are surface mines

You can construct a Quarry, on Buildings.

• A Quarry has a requirement to access and requires some resources to construct.
• A Quarry provides Clay and, after you research the required technologies, also Coal and Nickel

Access

Quarry appears, on Buildings, after you research Open mining on Technologies.

• You can build Quarries, after you research Open mining.
• Open mining has a requirement to access and research.

Technology required:
Technology	Requirement	Research cost
Open mining	invest 8 900 Knowledge in Science	Mineral	80 000
		Pickaxe	3 000
		Knowledge	1 200

Construction

You can build a Quarry on Buildings, after you research the required technology.

• You need 50 000 Mineral and 500 Pickaxes, to build your first Quarry.
• You need 20% more resources, each time you build another one.

Example costs:
Current Quarries	Mineral	Pickaxe
0	50 000	500
1	60 000	600
2	72 000	720
3	86 400	864
...	...	...
n	50 000 × 1.2n	500 × 1.2n

Production

• A Quarry provides Clay, and:
  • Coal, after you research Mineral coal; and
  • Nickel, after you research Safe storage.

Resources produced:
Produces	Rate
Clay	0.20 per second
Coal	0.02 per second
Nickel	0.001 per second

• Other factors increment Clay production, increment Coal production and increment Nickel production.
