Bombs, Frost crystals, and radars

Classic Bombs clear rock, Ice Bombs can drop Frost crystals, and radars point at buried treasure. Read the live price before you buy.

Bombs and radars are optional Cash consumables. They do not replace Climb Higher or the next pickaxe. Stock is limited, and guides describe them as expensive enough to save for a target.

Bombs

Every bomb detonates. The secondary effect is what changes.

  • Classic Bomb: a plain explosion that clears an area.
  • Ice Bomb: freezes the blast zone into a glacier and causes Frost crystals to drop.

Other bomb names and element effects from different Roblox mining games are not listed here. In one Mine Antarctica session, a bomb on the shop was priced at 50,000 Cash. The clip does not lock that price to a named bomb, so treat 50,000 as a price that player saw, and read your own shop card.

Use a bomb when a thick section at a worthwhile altitude will return more than the Cash and the stock. Do not spend one on a thin low wall you can pickaxe.

Radars

Radars reveal buried treasure from a distance. Each has its own range. Some are described as adding a secondary effect such as a mutation or extra luck. A Boulder Radar is a named tool players look up; a short tutorial shows how to use one while the creator is also trying to raise equip weight.

Buy a radar when you are already able to survive the band you will search. A radar ping you cannot reach, or cannot carry, does not pay.

Mutations

Mutation is mentioned as a possible radar effect, and Frost crystals are tied to the Ice Bomb. A full mutation multiplier table is not part of the official description, and tables from other mining games were not copied here. Read the tag on the crystal you actually mined.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How often does the mining zone change?

The official description says a new Antarctic mining zone arrives every hour. Zone names are not published ahead of time. Read the zone board in your server after the hour.

Are there Mine Antarctica codes?

No working code is confirmed. The experience description does not list one, and strings published for other mining games will not work here. A code field location is also not confirmed.

Should I dig down or climb?

Climb. Guides and gameplay agree that digging straight down does not improve crystal rarity. Height is the progression bar, and the cold is the limit on that height.

What should I upgrade first?

Buy the upgrade that matches why the last run stopped. Climb Higher (warmth) if the cold or your health ends it. A better pickaxe if rock or a crystal will not break. Carry More (backpack) if the bag fills while you are still safe.

How do I raise Mining Luck?

Place spare crystals in the garden for digging luck. Like the experience and join the PolarMine Games group for a stated +1 Mining Luck. The description does not publish how much luck each garden crystal adds.
