Mining Uranium and Osmium
Do I need advanced miners to mine Uranium and Osmium?
I've found Uranium cave and set up my lvl1 miners and all it shows is Iron, do I need the lvl2 miners to mine it?

T2 will mine all that T1 can mine and also uranium and osmium as well as some others.
T3 will mine everything but you have to select what it should mine.

Uranium, Aluminum, and Sulfur can be mined with a level 1 ore extractor. Uranium, Osmium, and SuperAlloy need a level 2 ore extractor. I'm not sure about Xeolite.

Level 1 ore extractors are inefficient and get lots of metals that aren't your target metal so you need to empty them regularly. On one hand, they're great if you have a big building project. On the other hand - it's a good thing shredders are a thing.

Zeolite can also be mined with the T2 extractor.

As far at the T1 extractor, I like to set up 10 or so in the aluminium area. I call it my scrap yard, everything converts to super alloy rods. Once auto crafters and drones it works pretty well making super alloy rods. And getting rid of a lot of excess material. I usually don't take them down until I can use T3 extractors.

Osmium can be mined with a T1. There is a cave not far from starting area.

You can mine Iridium, Aluminium and sulfur with T1 extractor. Uranium and Zeolithe require level 2. I tried and you can see it on google.
