How it works

Mining a rock

Each hit lands after Interval.
Every hit rolls each On hit item chances entry, then each stone item at Stone item chance and each essence item at Essence item chance. Each item found doubles with Output Doubling Chance.
The rock breaks early with Rock break chance. Otherwise its progress grows by Rock break chance, and the rock breaks once progress reaches 0.9999.
A broken rock restarts at Minimum prospecting progress at once; rocks never deplete.
A broken rock pays Product quantity, one more with Additional product quantity chance, doubled with Output Doubling Chance. With Shatter Chance the rock shatters: the ore triples and the XP doubles.
It then pays XP and, for a rock with a bar item, that bar with Bar item chance, doubled with Output Doubling Chance.
