Tin is mined with small rodents named tinnites. They burrow under the ground and chip away at the tin deposits with their small but strong front teeth. Each small tinnite creature can mine about 2 or 3 ounces of tin per day by holding the tin in the pouches located on each side of their neck, they can also hold about 1/3 of the tin in the small backpack they carry their backs. The tin is then brought to the surface where is is refined into a pure metal through a secondary process called "creating pure tin metal through the secondary process". This process is easy and does not need explanation
