Camp Ore Extractor

Craft camp ore extractor from the material bench. Stand close to the material bench, scroll down and select craft camp ore extractor. The resources required to craft it are wood, stone, and hemp. You will find all these resources in the Autumn Forest. After finishing crafting, place the camp ore extractor in the farmland.

Farmlands are the areas near your manor where you can plant crops, sow seed, and place livestock pen. You will find some stones on your farmland which you need to remove using gold bars. We recommend you to find farmland with no stones to place your camp ore extractor.

Drill Engine Oil

To run mining machine in LifeAfter game, you need fuel which is called drill engine oil in-game. Drill Engine Oil can be gathered from wilderness chests, from the trade city, and from the camp vault merchant. Visit your camp vault, there you will find a merchant. Interact with him to look for items in his bag.

Alloy Drill Bit

To extract ore from the mining machine, we need an alloy drill bit. Stand close to the ore extractor and you will get an extract option. Select an alloy drill bit. You will get 1 unit of the alloy drill bit by completing the new area quest of Chapter 3 (newbie quest).

You can also get alloy drill bit by farming in sandcastle, snow highlands, Charles town. You have to search for chests in these areas and unlock them to get an alloy drill bit.

Extracting Potassium Nitrate

After placing the camp ore extractor in the farmland, stand close to it and choose extract. Use the alloy drill bit, add fuel and wait for few hours for the machine to dig out ore.
