Sell Ores areas and maps guide: the starting area, ore floors, secret spots and the best mining locations for money per minute.
Introduction
Sell Ores is a mining game with a world built around ore, and knowing where to mine is half the strategy. You start in the Starting Area where the tutorial teaches you the loop, then move up through ore floors — vertical zones that hold progressively higher-value ores — and eventually discover secret spots and the best money-per-minute locations. Because the game is new, exact area names and layouts are community-observed rather than officially documented, so this page focuses on what players have confirmed: the starting area, the ore floor progression, rumored secret locations, and which spots are best for farming. The most important idea is that your best mining spot is always the highest floor you can sustain, because higher floors multiply the value of every mining second. If you are new, use this page to plan your exploration order and skip straight to the spots that pay.

Core Mechanics
The Sell Ores world is a mining progression ladder. The Starting Area is where every account begins: it teaches you how to place ores, mine them and sell them, and its low-value ores are perfect for funding your first upgrades. Ore floors are the core progression system — each floor holds higher-value ores, and unlocking the next floor is the main way your income grows. Secret spots are rumored locations that hide rare ores, though the exact coordinates are community-verified rather than official. Best mining spots are simply the floors and positions where your income per minute is highest, which usually means the highest floor you can sustain with your current drones. New zones arrive with updates and offer fresh ores and event rewards. The practical rule is simple: always mine the highest floor you can handle, and revisit lower floors only for specific goals.
Advantages
Knowing the area layout prevents wasted time. Instead of wandering the map or farming a low-value corner, you can head straight to the highest floor you can sustain and maximize your income per minute. The area guide also tells you which zones are worth revisiting — secret spots for lucky rare finds, new zones for event rewards, and the starting area only for low-level goals. For free-to-play players, efficient exploration is pure progress: every minute spent mining the right floor is a minute that compounds into the next unlock. The progression map also makes it easy to plan your next move: if you are earning slowly, the answer is almost always the next ore floor, not more time in the current one.
Challenges
Exact area names, secret spot locations and zone unlock requirements in Sell Ores are community-observed rather than officially documented, so they can be incomplete or change after updates. Secret spots in particular are rumored rather than confirmed, and some players report that they are hard to find or may not exist in the current version. New zones arrive with updates on an unpredictable schedule, so the area list grows without warning. Because the map is new, community guides may disagree on the best spots, so treat the area table as a starting point and verify in-game after each patch. Check the in-game map and this page after each patch for the latest layout.

Quick Tips
Always mine the highest floor you can sustain. Lower floors feel safe but pay a fraction of what the next floor earns, and the income difference compounds over every trip. Push your floors early and often. The income gap between floors compounds, so pushing upward is always the highest-value goal once you can sustain the next zone.
Explore new zones as soon as they drop — update areas usually carry fresh ores and event rewards that early visitors can farm before the crowds. First access often means the best income for the first few days after a patch. Patch-day farming is a proven way to jump ahead of players who wait, because fresh areas usually carry the best temporary rewards.
Do not waste time wandering the map looking for secret spots as your main strategy. Farm your best accessible floor for steady income, and treat secret spots as occasional jackpot attempts rather than your economic plan. Reliable floors with strong drones outperform lucky hunts over a full session, so keep your economy on the highest stable floor.
