Mineral

Mineral is a town in the country south of Mapleland, to the east of Reggie Peak and northwest of Farmiles. Mineral is a former mining town which has fallen into deep disrepair, with its economy failing due to the mines closing, and its environment ruined by the mountainous spoil hills created by the mines.

Much of Mineral's problems mirror those of numerous coal towns in the Northeastern United States, and the water pollution echoes real-life Flint, Michigan.

Tour
There are four major areas to visit in Mineral.

Old Town Mineral
This is the center of commerce. A string of smaller shops with lower prices but limited selection are overshadowed by a large StarMart. There's also an antique schoolhouse and a few historical points of interest.

Strip Mine
Much larger than the town itself, this coal pit is open to the air and has numerous enemies roaming freely, including the three semi-autonomous digging machines provided by the Sherman Group.

Spoil Tip
A maze of dirt and rocky soil, this is the towering mountain of waste caused by the mine. It's obscuring the entrance to the Old Mine, and Skye's talents are needed to repair the digging machines and clear it away.

The Old Mine
No longer used to dig coal, this mine is now a dungeon full of monsters. At the bottom of the mine, Buster and company will encounter the Ghost Pipes, which when defeated rewards the Sunny Day Memory.

Trivia
Mineral is the third town in Evil Step to follow the solfège naming pattern, following Reggie Peak and preceding Farmiles.
