It would be nice if there was a visual cue when a mine got below 20 ore or so. Perhaps a red glow around the mine, with a little popup window that you could toggle on/off that informed you that one was getting low? Trying to keep track of my dying mines is doable, but a little frustrating.
The red glow sounds like a workable idea for both mines and quarries, but with a possible 60+ mines and quarries that could mean a lot of popups appearing at once.
One of the skills needed for this game is learning how to manage level 5,6 & 7 mines. A level 6 copper mine on a fast deposit may only have just 4 minutes of life left once it's down to 20 ore.
When it comes to Gene pools and shallow ends they can be found at the bar drinking pina colada's
You're right, but that's why I said toggleable on/off in the options for the popups. I acknowledge that it could get annoying for some people. Maybe the popup could be set to a threshold, so players could decide at what point they want to be notified?
+1 for a red glow -1 for the popup

Another option could be a color change in the economic summary when a mine is reaching some level like 5% or so?
Sorry, but I've slept since then...
