Q1: What are the difficulties of mining in mountains?

[Answer]

Mountains are places where rich seams of gold, silver and other metals are found.

The chance to become rich has tempted many people to mine for metals in the mountains - it's called prospecting.

But in the past, few have been prepared for the winter hardships or the difficulties of getting their treasure away.
