Servus,
this is a mega mini thread that contains 6 minis in smithyton.
Since I'm already working on building the largest mine, I'll plan the others as well.
In the near future I will plan more plottings and structures on the marked positions.
I am happy about every builder or probie who wants to contribute something.
All workshops are owned and operated by House Shermer of Smithyton.
The mines extract ores and stone from underground mining, the charcoal burners produce the coal for the extraction process and a large number of metal processing companies work with it.
The workers live on each complex for the duration of their assignment.
Foremen and supervisors ensure work planning and smooth work.
The site is surrounded by watchtowers to prevent looters and robbers.
Plan:
1. Kirfoldmine BIG: IRON / STONE
The biggest Complex and Mine with various working and living areas.
Its the first one who has some big WIP.
The iron is processed there directly for further processing. The stone is prepared as needed for various purposes and is also used for Smithyton itself.
2. Kirfoldmine SMALL: IRON / COPPER
A smaller growing complex with a mine that mines and processes the ores directly.
3. Abandoned Kirfoldmine:
An abandoned old mine, collapsed and sealed with wood. You can go down and explore a little. Most collapsed or boarded up. There will be some remains of the old workers' huts.
4. Ashwoodmine: SILVER / TINN
A medium-sized complex that takes the mined ores directly to the Big-Smith Hall due to the value. There they are cast into bars, traded and sold to other metalworkers
5. Big Smith Hall:
A metal processing hall with storage and administration of the surrounding complexes. All products are collected and delivered there, whether processed or not.
In the great hall the iron is formed into all kinds of uses and industrial tools.
The more precious metals such as silver and tin are melted down and traded there or sold to metalworking companies in the region.
6. Coal Camp:
Coal is an important part of metal extraction and blacksmithing. Large quantities are required.
Excess coal is traded towards Footly/Tumbleton.

In addition to the mining and processing of metals on a large scale, I could also imagine many smaller metal-craft businesses.
Silversmith, Jeweler, Armorer, Swordmaker, etc etc.
But that's not what this thread is about.
