Dynamite
A distinctly different approach to mining, light the fuse and stand back! (Explosives convert blocks into their crushed variants.)
Notes
Dynamite is an explosive tool used for an alternative approach to mining—when placed and detonated, it converts blocks into their crushed variants, which can then be processed for resources. It is a crafted World Object, produced via the Dynamite recipe, and also serves as an ingredient for the Mining Charge. Because the blast can scatter resources and damage nearby terrain, ensure you clear the area and maintain a safe distance before lighting the fuse.
