One of the first big milestones in Sengoku Dynasty is unlocking bronze tools. It’s a major step that allows you to venture further afield and collect more advanced resources, but before you can start making bronze you’re going to need to get your hands on some tin.

Sengoku Dynasty: How To Increase Your Population
Raising your village population is vital to the progression of Sengoku Dynasty, and here’s how you can do it without much trouble.
Finding tin can be a challenge for new players just starting the game, since it requires you to venture out of the starting area and into the unknown wilds. It’s well worth the expedition, though, and eventually you’ll even be able to set up a mining village to produce tin automatically.
Where To Find Tin Ore In Sengoku Dynasty
You won’t find tin in the Sosogi Region, but once you leave you should find deposits pretty frequently. Tin is most commonly found in the Mountain, and Enjiro Regions, and is also abundant in the Central Plains.
Look for ore deposits similar to copper; lumps of stone in the ground. Unlike copper, though, they’ll have a silvery sheen to them. Like all mineral deposits in the game, they get covered by snow in the winter, which can make them harder to identify from a distance.
The bandit hideout in the Mountain Region is in a cave full of tin deposits. Once the bandits are cleared out, you can mine enough tin to last you several seasons if you have enough patience to do so.
How To Mine Tin In Sengoku Dynasty
Unlike stone and copper ore, tin requires upgraded tools in order to mine. Specifically, you’ll need a pickax made of copper or better. You can craft a copper pickax at a Workshop once you’ve mined some copper in Sosogi.
If you settle a village in either the Mountain Region or Enjiro Region, any Mining Outpost that you build there will be able to produce tin by assigning a villager to the job. The villager will need a copper pickax or better, just as if you were mining the ore yourself. The higher the quality of the pickax, the more tin the villager will produce each day.
This can be either your starting village if you opt not to settle in Sosogi, or any future villages you settle after obtaining permission at the Temple.

What Is Tin Ore Used For In Sengoku Dynasty?
Unlike most resources and crafting materials in Sengoku Dynasty, tin ore has a single purpose; to be smelted with copper to produce bronze. Bronze takes a long time to produce in any quantity, but once the smelting process is finished you can use it to make upgraded tools and weapons that will make the job of settling the Nata Valley and establishing your dynasty much easier.
