Template:Worldbox Monkey Mines (simply known as Mines in the animated series) is the second area adventured through in the game Donkey Kong Country. The only animal buddy used in this area is Winky the Frog. The boss of the area is Master Necky. This area was also the first appearance of the Kremling, Krash, as well as the first place with mine-kart stages. There was a temple at the end of the stage which is currently believed to be built by the Kremlings, but no true evidence.
In the cartoon, this area is closely connected to King K. Rool and his minions' base.

The first level of Monkey Mines is also the first level to feature Winky the Frog. The high-jumping amphibian can only be reached by jumping off of a Necky. This level is also the shortest in the game, being about half the length of a normal level. Enemies here include Neckies, Gnawties, and Klaptraps.
Mine Cart Carnage

Mine Cart Carnage is the second level of the dark mines and also the first minecart level. A secret shortcut can be found at the beginning of the stage that allows the player to entirely skip the level. Common enemies include Krashes.
