This location features three areas. However, there are no secrets in the second area:
The first cave
There is a small water tank in the first cave on the left. Use the hook and the rope to turn around the platform on the water. You will find a character token: Guy Newbery. Turn to the right and destroy the pile of rocks with a pickaxe: you will find the first piece of shield.
In the central part of the cave there is a yellow pump. Use it as a worker. Once you get rid of the water, take the Spikey Don character token from the hole. On the ground floor you will also find five burning barrels. If you have a firefighter disguise, you can put the fire down. Three of them are on the ground (notice the one near the cave entrance) and the fourth barrel (4/5) is lying near the booth from which you take miner costume during the story...
It's not over yet. Go to the left side and climb up. Behind the bars you will see a vehicle token: Dumper. In order to collect it you must color the switch to green (next to it you will see a burning barrel (5/5)). Color changer can be found deeper in the side corridor of the above cave. However, in order for the changer to work you must have a worker disguise and you must fix an electric box.
The third cave
There is nothing interesting in the second cave where you're jumping down. Go to the third one in which you must construct a cart. It doesn't matter if you already have the bricks required for building the cart. Start climbing up. You must destroy the yellow rocks on the walls. The first one can be found after defeating the opponents, jumping higher and constructing a catapult. The ore (1/5) is on the right - all you need to do is shoot it.
Go higher, use the torch to blow the object. Behind it you will see another ore (2/5). Jump to the left: there is a bird cage (1/4). Open it. Now go to the right. There you will see another ore (3/5) and a bird cage (2/4).
Go back down. Jump on the elevator on the right side, near the chasm, before using the cart. Take the chest, place it below and fix the elevator. It will ride up and bring you a vehicle token: Steadfast. After using the cart: destroy the ore on the wall (4/5). You will see a bird cage (3/4) on the right side, on the last rock sticking from the water.
The last bird cage (4/4) can be found at the top, before the cabin. In order to collect the last ore you must build a catapult and use it to get to the right. There you can use the kitchen available in farmer disguise and reach the final ore (5/5). There, at the top, you will also find a red brick.
