Description

The Mining Game is a classic economic board game that's all about digging for treasure - literally. First published in 1983, this game was designed by Trevor W. Jenkins, a seasoned expert in the mining industry. Players take on the role of mining moguls, starting with a cool $20 million to acquire mining leases and discover valuable metal deposits. With a combination of skill, luck, and strategic decision-making, you'll compete for contracts to mine and sell your discoveries, all while navigating fluctuating metal prices. As you manage your mining operation, you'll need to make savvy choices to come out on top. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of around 120 minutes, The Mining Game is perfect for 2 to 6 players aged 12 and up. It's a fun and interactive way to get a glimpse into the inner workings of the mining industry, and the player who earns the most money will be crowned the winner.
