Collecting Metals and Rocks
As part of the collection aspects of The Sims 3, your sims can locate various rocks and ores scattered around your neighbourhood. These ores can be smelted by sending them off by mail. The next time the mail comes, your sims can check the mail and retrieve the ingots, which can then be sold or displayed. Ingots will stack on top of each other.
