# Mining
Zombie Miners can do 4 types of mining tasks and they can find various valuable items, such as ZBC (between 5 and 1000 ZBC), Special Items (Ring, Bracelet, Necklace, and Tiara), Precious Stones (Emerald, Rubi, Sapphire, and Diamond), and Magical Fragment in each task:
1. **Regular Mining**: requires a Zombie Miner and a Pickaxe, or a Royal Zombie with a Royal Pickaxe. Costs 10 ZBF and 0.08 USD (paid in WAX). It has a cooldown of 5 minutes for each Mine.
2. **Vehicle Owner Mining**: Zombie Miners with a Pickaxe can use their Bicycle to mine faster. It costs 10 ZBF and 0.08 USD (paid in WAX). It has a cooldown of 3 minutes for each Mine.
3. **Mega Mining**: Zombie Miners owning a Pickaxe, a Bicycle and a full set of jewelry can do the Mega Mining Task, which gives 10x the results of Regular Mining tasks. Costs 100 ZBF and 0.80 USD (paid in WAX). It has a cooldown of 1 minute for each mine. Royal Zombies don't need a full set of jewelry to do this task.
4. **Boosted Mining**: Zombie Miners owning a Pickaxe, a Bicycle and full set of jewelry can do this task after consuming a Boosted Mining Dish. It gives 20x the results of the Regular Exploration task, Costs 100 ZBF and 1.60 USD. It has a cooldown of 1 minute for each mine. Royal Zombies don't need a full set of jewelry to do this task.
