A mine is a building that allows for the extraction of various materials. For 16,500 Chocolate Coins, Willy Builder can be hired to build this building once the player reaches level 26. Only Diggerlings can be hired to work in it. When Diggerlings work in the mine they find items such as gold nuggets, seeds, and gems. A Candary with a gas mask accessory can work in the mines too and get resources as well.
Using the Mine is the only way to get a Dragonache egg, but other items are more likely to be found in the mine. In Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise it is also the only way to get a blue or green bone, as Costolot's Store sells only red bones, not green or blue bones. The different colored bones allow for customizing the appearance of the Choclodocus when hatched. There are many things obtainable from the mine that make it worth while other than the dragonache egg.
A Profitamole to eat the mine workings (the big piles of soil) that sometimes come out may be beneficial. However, in Viva Piñata: Pocket Paradise the mine does not produce mine workings.
The Mine cannot be packed in a Crate.
Appearance[]
The Mine entrance appears as a stone brick structure with a gap in the middle.
