A question about resources...

[Evil Ernst]

I've been wondering a thing for some time now and I haven't found an answer for it. I guess it shouldn't be THAT hard to try it out in the actual game but well if someone could answer me this I would be grateful.

Lets say you have a jungle tile (or is it forest) with the strategic resource rubber on. Would the rubber disappear if you would irrigate or build a mine that tile?

This question applies to all kinds of resources (bonus, luxury and strategic) I guess. Will you loose the resource if you get rid of the forest/jungle/whatever which is originally on the tile when you "get" the resource?

Thanks in advance.

Thyrwyn is right. All resources are put on the map at game start and stays there until they are discovered. So you can even clear the jungle before you discover replacement parts, and the rubber will still pop up in the predestined location.

The only way clearing of forest etc. matters for resources is when a resource randomly disappear (some resources can). It is then randomly moved to any square that will fulfill the requirements at that time.

Ok I see, great, interesting.

Thank you both for your help with answering my question/s.
