Mining

Mining is included in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Mining can be used to make money and is similar to the saw mill activity, smithing and cooking. There are 13 different types of ore that can be mined in Skyrim. . Types of Ore include: Iron, Orichalcum, Moonstone, Silver, Gold, Ebony, Quicksilver, Corundum and Malachite. Iron can be made into weapons and armor when smelted, or Steel, when combined with other ore. Gold and Silver can be turned into Jewelery. While mining, there is a chance that a gem will be added to the inventory. Mining requires a Pickaxe. Mining can be done by dual wielding two pickaxes and attacking the ore node.
