Pickaxes are bought at the Pickaxe Shop in the hub with Cash. Each tool has Power and Mine Size. Power is how fast a crystal breaks. Mine Size is how much mountain one swing clears. Higher numbers are strictly better; there is no tradeoff between the two. From Twilight Cleaver upward, Mine Size is listed as Max, so later tools are compared on Power alone.
The experience description does not print this shop table. The names, costs, and stats below are a published shop lineup. Several Power and Mine Size pairs were also read off shop cards in an early playthrough: 25, then 75, then 125, then 210 Power with Mine Size 104, then 600 Power with Mine Size 338. Confirm the next card in your own shop before you spend, because a live price can move.

Rusted Scrapper is the tool you spawn with. The first real purchase is Splintered Timber at 25 Cash. One Epic row is published only as an abbreviated name while listing 43,000 Cash, Power 600, and Mine Size 338. Match that card by the two stats. Do not guess a longer name.
Genesis Core is also referred to as Ultima Genesis Core. It is the top of this lineup: 1 trillion Cash, 1,000,000 Power, Mine Size Max.
How to spend
Buy the next pickaxe when you can afford it if mining speed or rock resistance is the bottleneck. Saving across several tiers while you swing a weak tool slows the Cash loop. A pickaxe-level warning, or a formation that will not break, means the next tool is the purchase even if you wanted warmth or bag space.
A large formation called the Mossite Boulder is reported at 308.8K HP and is reported to need the Titanium Breaker. Check the health bar and the warning on the rock in front of you before you treat that as a hard gate.
Cash is the only currency named for this shop. Robux skips, if the shop shows them, are separate from this Cash table.
