Posted August 9, 2015 (edited) Hello fellow Releasers! Central Bay Alliance is currently completing a canal project on the east end of Mercury Lake. If you wish to help or be a part of this project you are more than welcome to participate. We welcome all to come and join in helping make Release a better place. Please be willing to follow directions. We need miners, support beam built, torch lamps, tar, etc. We have several iron, Silver and Slate veins that need mined, if you mine it you can keep it. If you have Teamspeak, there is a public Release TS. sea.eve-bio.com:2858 Any questions please contact RollyPolly, Icbash.

Posted August 9, 2015 I'll send a miner / prospecter down from time to time, and speed picks are available to major mining helpers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 10, 2015 Still here! The East end of the canal comes out at willow cove, if you need somewhere to park a ship feel free to use our waterfront and if you need a bed it can probably be arranged pretty easily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 10, 2015 There is an inn at Feral Dustbunnies, just up the road from Willow Cove - free beds available to all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 14, 2015 I am starting to large crates full of 45-50 ish ql iron ore outside the Willow cove entrance, these are free to a good home. If you can leave the crate that would be helpful but isn't essential. If you would like to make a donation for it then any proceeds will go to the reimbursement of costs people have incurred with deed placement and such.

Posted August 16, 2015 lake side entrance is done know to work on inside and get it ready for lowering underwateralot of silver in the way plus more rock shards mine from celling Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 17, 2015 There was a little confusion earlier today, the entrance on the east side is 1 tile into the southern perimeter of willow cove. A few people found themselves further south in an older abandoned canal effort that ultimately terminates in the mine network below the ruins of borderlands. The southern border of the deed and the canal also line up with the southern edge of the BMTC deed which is the square area raised out of the water you can see on the map posted above.

Posted August 18, 2015 took out 3 silver veins so far, will work on a few more this week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 28, 2015 The canal is passable (sailboat,rowboat,Knarr) 8 or so veins left alot of silver.little bit of work left to do reinforced outer walls. and little path work. left to do.could use more vein miners Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 14, 2015 So the canal is looking pretty darn awesome, there are a couple of veins on the walkway left and one in the water. There are also a bunch of veins in the walls that will have to be removed so they can be collapsed again and reinforced. All veins apart from one iron are silver.
