How to Get Gold Ore on Harvest Moon: Animal Parade on the Wii

"Harvest Moon: Animal Parade" is a gardening game for the Nintendo Wii. In addition to tending to plants, the player can socialize with non-player characters, craft tools and mine for resources. Mining is an essential step toward crafting tools, which helps the player farm more efficiently. For instance, the Gold Hoe can more quickly till the soil than its iron counterpart. The player gets Gold Ore the same way he gets all minerals. He must enter a mine and smash rocks.

  Enter your tool shed and grab your hammer. Hammers can smash rocks, making it the perfect tool for gathering mineral resources.
