I already managed to build a shelter and make it suitable for NPCs to live in (The guide NPC told me how), but i didn't do any mining, i completely forgot
Ah, and Be sure to build Wooden platforms, you can pass up and down through them, and it makes it easier to get up and down your mineshaft without falling a great height and exploding into meaty chunks.
Another thing would be to explore the surface. Alot of the time you can find caves with ore in them, or even clay pots/treasure chests with some hard to find items in em. Heck, sometimes i see ore just on the surface.
But if you happen to see Gold Ore on the surface (Yellow gold color, sparkly) It means you most likely have a floating island above that location, so build yourself a tower with wooden plats and see if theres any good stuff in there. All floating islands have a house made of gold/silver/copper bricks/walls, and a gold chest which usually contains some really nice items.
