Mountains, or hills, in RimWorld, are a natural structure that contain resources and special rooms.

Shells fired from [[mortar]]s or drop pods will break through constructed roofing but not through overhead mountains (or any tile underneath one).

== Resources ==
Many resources can naturally be found in mountains, such as minerals, stone, and even loot!

=== Minerals/Metals ===
{{Recode|section=1|reason=Automated table}}
Minerals and metals come in deposits called veins. They can be found in mountains and hills. They are found easier if the terrain that you landed on is either: Small Hills, Large Hills, or Mountainous.

=== Roofs ===
The roof type of mountains can be overhead mountain or thin stone roofs. [[Transport pod]]s and [[mortar]] shells cannot break overhead mountain but can break thin stone roofs. However, overhead mountain is prone to insect [[infestation]]s. Overhead mountain cannot be removed. Caution is advisable when mining in mountains - while thin stone roof collapses  can injure the heads and necks of pawns and even occasionally kill, overhead mountain will bury them alive, instantly killing them and utterly destroying their body and everything they had equipped, preventing both [[Resurrector mech serum|resurrection]] and salvage. This will form [[collapsed rocks]] to act like a pillar.

== Ancient Shrines ==
{{Main|Ancient shrine}}
These ancient buildings are can be partially or entirely buried in mountains and hills. Shrines can contain valuable items only otherwise obtained from [[quest]]s or [[trading]]. They are guarded by [[mechanoid]]s or [[insectoid]]s, and contain mysterious [[cryptosleep casket]]s containing [[ancients|ancient]] soldiers trapped inside for millenia. They are equipped with spacer tech gear, and can kill your colonists if you are not prepared.
