Minor expansion to mining on rimworld. Vanilla metals now have to be smelted from ores before they can be used.
Steel, gold and silver are smeltable in primitive furnace, blast furnace and electric smelter. Uranium and plasteel are smeltable in rich ore mill ( after researching "Advanced Smelting")
Mines are added. They spawn infestations like vanilla drills.
After depletion they leave "abadoned mine" for 45 days (configurable), after that time, mine can be rebilt. Mine can't be destroyed nor deconstructed to prevent cheesing. Pawns after mining get "Miners Hunger" Hediff, it increases hunger and decreases plant work speed and yield. Goes away by itself.
Mod also adds "adobe bricks". You can craft them at "brick spot" (production tab). Brick dry out on their own. That addtion was made to ensure that player has means to make first smelting furnace.
New research!

Electric smelting - unlocks electric smelter

WARNINGG!!
Mod has no loanger dependancy and uses own coal.
Will be incompatible with any mods that change vanilla mineable rocks.

Enjoy!
I added simple coal mod (https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=50492.0), so you dont need to rely on third party mods that add even more self-oriented content.
Also here (https://drive.google.com/open?id=1jd19Zt7j8jOlmrv6XO7xJECQyS8x5jGp) is a link to old version of your mod with minified amount of stuff and very simple straightforward mechanics that still retain its usefullness. Also hey, i can just pick it up and refine and give it to you but it aint my mod and it aint abandoned.
I have updated links and load order.
