Mine auction

The mines are auctioned off by the Clone Land State as they are found by state geologists.

Bidding rules at the Auction of mines

Clones of "Craftsman" social status and above who have received "geologist education" at the University can participate in the auction.

Gold mines are auctioned off by the Clone Land State as they are found by state geologists.

Trading Period - the period of time in hours and minutes during which the lot is sold. The maximum time period for selling a lot is 48 hours. If no bids were made on the lot, the mine is put up for auction again, and the auction is held again. This is the case until the mine is redeemed.

If any player makes a bid in the last 5 minutes of the bidding period, the bidding period for that lot is extended for another 5 minutes.

The wager may be either for gold coins, gifts, water, or silver or gold eggs, depending on the type of mine. Amber, Elveron, and Portaline stone mines can only be purchased for gold coins. The rate in water, gifts, gold and silver eggs is calculated taking into account their face value.

The next bid will increase the current lot value by one step. To make a bet, you need to have the right amount of gold coins (precious eggs). You can place a bet using the "Bet" button.

You can increase your own bet without limitation.

Once you have placed a bet, the bet amount is reserved. It will be finally written off after the purchase of the corresponding lot. If another player outbids you, your previously reserved bet will be returned to you.

If you bought the mines at the end of the auction, you cannot cancel the deal.

The purchased mine is displayed to the clone who made the purchase. It will appear within 5-10 minutes after the end of trading.

After the purchase of the placer, there is no return action associated with the return. The clone begins to work on the purchased mine according to the rules.

Nominal value of mines and step

Nominal value - the price at which the mine is offered for sale.

A step is the amount of money or resources by which the current value of a lot will increase when a player bids to buy it.
