Difference between revisions of "GTA:Mining"

To start the mining run, you need to go to the mine first. The mineshaft is located in the middle of the map, and south of Fort Zancudo. It is also marked on the map, so you can easily find it in the legend. Make sure you get a mining drill from the [[GTA:General Stores|general store]] before you arrive here. Upon entering the mineshaft, you will be able to find multiple places to mine your materials, the deeper you go, the more chance you have for valuable stuff. Go to an ore and stand on it, you will get a notification that you will be able to mine. Then press '''{{Key|Left Alt}}''' in order to start mining. You can mine coal, iron, copper, gold and more. Once your inventory is full, head to your car and press '''{{Key|Y}}''' to place the goods inside of your vehicle. Once the car is filled, you're good to go to the processor. Keep in mind that diamonds do not need processing and you can sell them instantly to the shop.

Once you're finished with filling your pockets with ores, you have to go to the metal smelting, which is also marked on the map, in the south east of the city. Head inside of the factory and then up the platform. Here you will find an area with floating text prompting you to press '''{{Key|Left Alt}}''' to start smelting, this will open an inventory menu, at which point you can drag the finished product from the right side, to your inventory on the left to begin processing the material. Once done with all the processing you are able to use the materials in certain crafting recipes, or sell them to other players for a profit.
