- +30% Villager gathering from Mines
Research effect
Research it at a Livestock Market after Amalgamation. It costs 300 Food and 300 Wood and takes 30 seconds. The bonus applies to Villagers mining; Coin from Fields, Estates, Haciendas, Whales and other sources is unaffected.

Cost and prerequisites
Invest when a substantial workforce can keep mining safely after the research completes. The cost and Industrial Age prerequisite make this a late specialization, so compare the likely remaining mine supply with immediate military and economy needs. Protect the mining line to keep the bonus productive.
