Well, if its not the electronic ones, then yeah. Because the electronic are harder to receive connections if its underground, while a normal compass, doesn't need any, it just need some wind to determine the path.
No, a compass may be unreliable underground in a mine due to interference from the surrounding metal ores and rock formations. Magnetic fields can be distorted and may cause the compass to give inaccurate readings. It is best to rely on other navigation tools in such environments.
If your unable to figure out how to work a compass its probably best not to use it.

The compass indicates the direction of magnetic North, from that you can work out South, East, West and all the other points on the compass.
The iPhone's digital compass application works just like any magnetic-needle compass. Launch the application by tapping the "Compass" button on the iPhone's.

where can i register for permit test to work London underground
the clock is rotating like the sun and that's how a compass works in physical education.
then make a compass
Why not? the desert is just the same as any other place on planet earth. Magnetic compasses work fine in the desert. See the "Where does the magnetic compass not work?" question for some places where they don't work.
a compass can be used anywhere.... the accuracy however may suffer in the magnetic polar regions. Then of course there is outer space where a compass would not work
