Alright, so I have a few scenes that will take place in a mine in a prison. Technology is Middle-Ages level, setting is similar to Africa and the Middle East. I have a few scenes that take place in the prison's mine. Here are my questions.
1. What are they mining? This is largely unimportant to the plot but important because different materials require different forms of mining. So I can't come up with it on my own until I fully understand mining itself.
2. What kind of mining involves pickaxes? I need pickaxes because they're an important plot element. So the material (question number 1) would need to be need to be required through a process that has pickaxes.
3. What kind of roles are needed in the process of mining? Because it's a prison I imagine that it would be like an assembly line, each person doing one part of the process. I just don't know the steps and the different jobs people would have.
