    Castle Story: upgrade buildings to Level 10: The Onyx Mine

    Update Information - added to the Main Goal Guide under "Upgrading building" post
    Notes:
    * You must have a Level 9 building to trigger the goals which then gives you the ability to craft onyx beams and blocks which are used to upgrade buildings to Level 10+
    * Be Level 40 (most likely)
    * Onyx ore will drop from multiple places and adventures.
    * The sparkling mine and deep mine will start dropping onyx ore when they are at Level 10+
    * The Onyx Mine has a guaranteed drop of either 2 or 4 onyx ore and has a 2 hour collection timer. Gem purchase only building. The purchase of the Onyx Mine is completely optional.

    ! What building should I upgrade to clear the goal Ore-ing To New Heights? !
    A: Take these points into consideration when deciding what to upgrade first:
    * You can choose any of the buildings listed in post 6 below, but if you upgrade the Sparkling Mine or Deep Mine, you will start getting drops of onyx ore from there too which will help speed things up given you're collecting from the mines all the time anyway.
    * Look through the list at what is 'cheapest' for you or what you can afford with the coin upgrade cost.
    * An upgrade of 3 onyx beams and blocks may be easier to do first but make it a building that you might collect from regularly so you see benefit straight away.
    * If additional royal points are your motivation, look at what resources you already have in that list or what resources can be replaced easily or built back up over time.
