A '''Miner''' is an [[Onu-Matoran]] who digs for precious substances to extract and use.

== Metru Nui ==
On [[Metru Nui]], the Onu-Matoran mined for [[Lightstone]]s in the [[Lightstone Mines]], but also to create lower levels of the Archives. On one such expansion expedition, the miners accidentally broke into one of the [[Bohrok Nests]]. The machines did not awaken, but the [[Archivist]]s' curiosity was piqued and several specimens were studied.

== Mata Nui ==
On the island of {{p|Mata Nui|Location}}, the Onu-Matoran mined for Ore, [[Protodermis]] and other substances, mainly in the [[Great Mine]] and [[Marn Tunnels]]. Miners often made use of [[Ussal|Ussal Crabs]] and sophisticated machinery to assist them with their job, in addition to simpler tools like Pickaxes. The Onu-Matoran believed that mining was a fitting representation of the [[Three Virtues|Virtues]] revered in [[Onu-Koro]], Duty and Destiny.

Soon after the arrival of the [[Toa Mata]], Onu-Koro was in the midst of a miner strike. The miners were refusing to complete the [[Le-Koro]] Highway because the only available illumination, torches from [[Ta-Koro]], strained their eyes and were ineffective against attacks from [[Kofo-Jaga]]. While other miners carried protest signs, [[Taipu]] stubbornly continued to work. Eventually, [[Takanuva|Takua]] restored access to the [[Lightstone]] supply in the [[Cavern of Light]] and mining recommenced.

=== Mining Captain ===
The Mining Captain, also known as the Foreman, organized and supervised the work of the Miners on Mata Nui. Another responsibility of the Mining Captain was to speak on the Miners' behalf when in conference with [[Turaga]] [[Whenua]], and he did so during the [[Le-Koro Highway]] Miner Strike.

== Known Miners ==
* [[Aiyetoro]]
* [[Onepu]] {{C|occasionally}}
* [[Taipu]]
* [[Tehutti]]

=== Mining Captains ===
* [[Dosne]]
