Quarry Co.

Quarry Co.

Dig in. Literally.

---

Overview

Quarry Co. adds four sizes of quarry pits that let your colonists extract stone chunks and minerals from the ground. No more strip-mining the entire map for granite. Just build a quarry and assign quarriers. Spawned resources are automatically marked for hauling.

Buildings

Small Quarry (3x3)

• Cost: 30 wood, 10 steel
• Up to 9 workers at once
• Yields stone chunks, steel, slag, silver, and components

Quarry (5x5)

• Cost: 80 wood, 30 steel
• Up to 25 workers at once
• Same drops as small, plus gold, jade, plasteel, and uranium

Large Quarry (7x7)

• Cost: 150 wood, 60 steel, 2 components
• Up to 49 workers at once
• Great drop rates for rare materials

Grand Quarry (9x9)

• Cost: 250 wood, 120 steel, 4 components
• Up to 81 workers at once
• Requires Advanced Quarrying research (Industrial tier, 1200 cost)
• Highest drop rates for plasteel, uranium, gold, jade, and components
• Construction skill 6 required

How It Works

• Build a quarry (requires Quarrying research, 400 cost, Neolithic tier)
• Quarrying is its own work type in the work tab (separate from Mining)
• Multiple pawns can work the same quarry simultaneously (1 per tile)
• Each quarrying cycle produces a random resource based on quarry size
• Resources spawn unforbidden with a haul designation
• Toggle quarrying on/off with the gizmo button

Settings

Configurable in mod settings:

• Workers per tile multiplier (default 1.0x, range 0.1-3.0)
• Auto-haul quarried resources (default on)
• Minimum mining skill for quarrying (default 0, range 0-20)

Compatibility

• Vanilla-friendly - no DLC required
• Safe to add mid-save
• RimWorld 1.6
