Mining is the process of fetching natural raw material from below the Martian surface for further processing. The fetched raw materials are frozen water, minerals and ore.

Technology

Mining is an energy consuming job. Due to the thin atmosphere the digging machines are supposed to work automated or remote controlled.

Emerging galleries

The artificial caves are a nice side effect. They can be used to expand the settlement with storage rooms, living rooms, underground greenhouses, gas container for energy storage or storage of chemicals.
