could I make a journey to the center of the earth?

Yes, down to the core! You should start immediately.

We should investigate.

@OP
Dreamworks! Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to lead the first official Minichan expedition to the center of our planet! Your orders are to dig down as far as possible and find any evidence that can shed some light on this mystery. Don't worry about the local authorities -- just let them know that you are part of our expedition. An official Minichan attaché will be sent around to handle any legal concerns as they arise.

Please keep us updated as to your progress.

@OP

that's actually an interesting question and I know the answer.

If you live in creative mode, when you get past bedrock you can't dig any further because there's nothing there.

But if you live in survival mode, you'll just stop at bedrock. Hope that helps.

In some countries you own land all the way to the core of the planet. In others you don't.

I think it depends where you live, but if you're a home owner you can dig to the earth's core if you want. They actually need your permission to do things like build sewer lines. (you only experience problems like that if you buy a home in a new community obviously) Mineral rights (if you find Gold, is it your's?) are usually discussed in the contract of your home. Usually suburbs/packed togrther houses don't have mineral rights, but larger properties usually do.

I think you're right and that's a good explanation, but it also depends on local ordinances. For example, even if you have mineral rights, I'm sure you'd still need all sorts of licenses and permits if you actually wanted to start digging into some sort of mine. You also need drilling permits to go past certain depths and stuff like that.

Drilling permits? Pfft, all I need is my trusty shovel. But also one needs to consider home owner's associations, and things of that nature as well.

Yep, you gotta check all the local ordinances. You always have to check with your city before digging to make sure you don't hit any pipes or power lines.

If you can dig to the centre of the earth, you can claim ownership.
