The Mining Potion is a buff potion which grants the Mining buff when consumed. The buff increases mining speed by 25%. This lasts for (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) 10 / (Old-gen console version) 5 minutes, but can be canceled at any time by right-clicking the icon (), by selecting the icon using Cycle Next/Previous Buff and then pressing Remove Buff (), by selecting the icon and canceling it in the equipment menu (), or by double-tapping the buff icon ().

(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) It has a small chance to appear as a bonus drop from Slimes.

Notes

• The Mining buff only increases the mining speed of pickaxes, and will not increase the drilling speed of drills or the Drill Containment Unit(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions).
• The Mining buff will stack together with the bonuses from the Ancient Chisel(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions), Slice of Cake(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions), Celestial Stone, Celestial Shell, Sun Stone or Moon Stone, and Mining armor. Using several of these together with a Picksaw, Luminite Pickaxe(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions), or Shroomite Digging Claw will achieve very high digging speeds. It is unknown if the potion and other buffs work with hammers.
• A Flipper Potion will help when creating a hellevator, to avoid being slowed down by water.

Trivia

• The sprite slightly resembles a pickaxe when turned upside-down:
