It should not be a nugget, it should be a liquid.

Quicksilver, another name for the chemical element mercury. Literally "living
silver", from mercury's silver appearance and its unusual (for a metal)
liquidity at room temperature.

When mining it, you should need a bottle to put it in

Nevermind, after posting that Ssmud 400x told me:
Ssmud tells you 'YOUR IDEAS ARE DUMB'
and ended his thought(s) with:
Ssmud tells you 'THIS IS A FANTASY GAME'

I guess ignore that idea!

not sure if im just clueless but do you even know what you are talking about?
iirc quicksilver is not found from the nature, it's an alloy and so canyt be
mined... and yes there are typos, blame telnet

Umm... Mercury is an element, with atomic number of 80. So no, it's not an
alloy. It is, however, foundin nature in ore, which indeed would be nuggets.
Iirc 'pure' mercury is then refined as the surrounding ore is removed.

Yes, it is found in an ore.

Now I want all of you to take that one next logic step
in your little heads:

"oh right, we don't mine the ore then extract the quicksilver.
we seem to just extract the quicksilver right from the ground
in this game"
So now you can even skip the next logical step, and cut
to a real point (if you are that clever) and reply to my post
with "we should really mine the ore, then extract the quicksilver"
but alas, you're all fucking retards and respond with

"HAHA lo:Z don"T You NNIZZO shit bout DIZ GAME? LOLZZ ORE LOLZZ"
