    @billtwiley (US1)  Have you tried the usual fixes, like clearing your browser cache or reloading the game?  :)

    And keep in mind that it costs 2,000 gold to START the mine (using a Gold Mining License), so if you don't have at least 2,000 gold, you can't start a GML.

    And you need another Gold Mining License.

    I didn't realize in the beginning that I was using the blue certificate we all call GML... gold mining license. You have to earn or buy them. Check your inventory and see if you have any left!
  • Yes I have 30,000 gold, My license was working fine until I got 2 new gold mining licenses, after using the new licenses it quit working, I got a new blue gold mining license and it only worked one time,

    @billtwiley (US1) I must be missing something here. A gold mining license only works one time, then you need another one.
  • apparently you have not used the gold mine, I have used it dozens of times, and it renews, or at least it did renew every time I used it, until I added the new gold mining licenses.What would be the point of paying 19000 gold to change the time from 48 to 36 hours.

    each license is good for 1 load of gold only.  it doesn't renew. you WIN more licenses.have you checked your inventory?

    paying the gold to upgrade it only decreases the time for some it is worth it to get the gold faster maybe you bought gold when there was a gold mining package? i think they had a buy a 50k gold package or better and you got i think 48 gold mining licences i could be wrong about numbers it is to much for me to spend at one time so i only half pay attention to it except the new gold mining licence deal they had today that one is very tempting to me but i can buy a lot smaller package and get a couple but if you did do that then you would have been able to restart the mine 48 times 1 time for each gold licence then along with any you may have won playing the game

    stats for gold mine - upgrading mine only shortens production time:
    21 Gold Mining License$2,00048:00:00$4,000

    31 Gold Mining License$2,00036:00:00$4,000

    41 Gold Mining License$2,00028:00:00$4,000

    51 Gold Mining License$2,00024:00:00$4,000

    Yes, this is how it is supposed to work - Gold mining licence is for a one use only:

    2000 gold + GML = 4000 gold. 

    So one GML is worth 2000 gold and when you use it, its gone. 

    Note that GGS (company behind the game) sells gold for real money - this is how they get their salaries.
    Gold is therefore very hard to get inside the game (without paying for it with real money). 

    Upgrading the mine will only get you gold quicker, but it is not really worth it. Take care how you use your gold. The game offers you many opportunities to spend gold. You have to decide if it is worth or not.
