📖 Overview
The Iron Mine produces Iron, the fourth and most advanced basic resource in Whiteout Survival. Iron becomes required starting from Furnace level 6 and is essential for all high-level upgrades. While Iron is needed in smaller quantities than other resources early on, the requirements grow substantially for FC-level content. The Iron Mine at level 5 is a prerequisite for Furnace level 6 and maxes out at level 30.
💡 Tips & Strategy
- Iron becomes crucial starting from Furnace level 6 - upgrade your mine early.
- Iron Mine level 5 is required for Furnace level 6.
- Iron is typically needed in smaller amounts but is harder to gather.
- Iron tiles on the world map are more contested - send strong marches.
- Late game FC upgrades require massive amounts of Iron - plan ahead.
