Mining & Ores — 10 Ores, Mining Stages, Carts & Rails [Pixel]

Ten ores, each one minable in three stages. 217 top-down sprites for the whole mining loop: the rock in the wall, the drop on the floor, the cart it goes into and the rails the cart runs on.

What's inside

• nodes/ — 4 rock shapes × 3 mining stages (full, half, low) for copper, iron, gold, silver, coal, emerald, ruby, sapphire, amethyst and mithril. 120 sprites at 128px.
• pickups/ — 5 loose ore drops per ore, 50 sprites at 64px
• crystals/ — 3 crystal clusters in 8 colours, 128px
• props/ — 3 filled mine carts, 3 wooden support frames
• rails/ — 11 tileable rail tiles: straights, four curves, four buffer ends, a crossing
• icons/ — pickaxe, shovel, hammer, lantern, helmet, dynamite

The mining stages line up pixel-perfectly

All three stages of one rock share the same silhouette, and every ore of a given shape sits on the same pixels. So you swap full → half → low as the player mines and nothing jumps — and you can recolour an ore by swapping the folder, not the layout.

Practical notes

• Sprites are deliberately large (64–128px). Scale down to your tile size with nearest-neighbour and the pixels stay crisp; scaling up never works.
• Rails connect edge to edge and are named after the edges they join, so placing them needs no lookup table.
• MANIFEST.csv lists every file with its size.

Pairs with

• Cave & Mines — the tunnel the ore sits in
• Dungeon Props Kit — what else fills an underground room
• Irondeep Kingdom — floor and wall tilesets for the mine itself
