In Aniimo, Alpha Minespine is a boss encounter that only becomes accessible after players reach a certain point in the game’s progression. However, the game does not tell you where this Aniimo is located, when it will be available, or what you need to do in order to get it. Luckily, the process is fairly simple if you know what to do. Here’s the breakdown.
Where is Alpha Minespine in Aniimo?
Alpha Minespine Location
Alpha Minespine can be found in the Forgotten Mine Crystal Cave, a cave system located in the Beast Fang Ridge region. However, the Forgotten Mine cave only becomes accessible after you unlock the Earthwake Revelation upgrade at the Breezy Plains Branch by donating 120 Lumin Ambers.

Lumin Ambers can be found all over the map by solving overworld puzzles, completing challenges, and locating hard-to-reach places. To find 120 Lumin Ambers, your best bet is using an interactive Aniimo map.
Forgotten Mines
Start from the Beast Fang Ridge fast travel point. Head west down into the valley, and locate the cave entrance to the Forgotten Mines shown on the map screenshot above.
Enter the cave, and you’ll find that the entrance that leads deeper into the caves is blocked by a black stone. Break the black stone using a strong Break ability like Magmarex’s Fast and Furious or Grizbo’s Head Hammer to reveal a small entrance nearby.
If you don’t have Magmarex or Grizbo, you can lift the explosive barrels nearby using the Control character talent, place them on top of the rock, and light them on fire using a fire-type Aniimo skill to break the rock.
Twine with an Aniimo who can burrow underground using the Tunnel ability and go through the gap revealed behind the broken rocks. Budclaw, Shrubclaw, and Pebbling can use this ability.

Continue down the path, and you’ll soon reach the Forgotten Mine fast travel point. Head further in and you’ll find a campsite where you can heal, and directly opposite it is the Alpha Minespine boss arena.
