The Head miner in Cambria dosent give me control of the mine and i have cleared the town. He says something about 4 ppl called in sick and then says he knows i dont have time to stay around all day. Is there anything i have missed?

One possibility:
Get ready for a big fight (i.e. prepare lotsa ammo and lotsa people).
Go into the mine.
Descend to lower levels (that weren't available previously).
If nothing errmmmmm happens there, wait 12 hours and do so again.

Another possibility: (more likely) What is the % of loyalty you have? Have you conquered all sectors? People won't mine for you if you don't have more than 30% or so.

I have loyalty 34 % at the moment but i have been waiting for it to go over 40 and tried but same reply. I went down to the mines and found 2 "sectors" and all i found was some silver pieces, talked to some workers who said i should go talk to the head miner but it dosent work.

After 12 hours you may get a different answer. I hate spoilers so...

Well i proceded and captured Alma mine and then got msg about bugs in Drassen so i went there and cleaned it up. Problem is Oswald in Cambria and now also that guy in Alma wont give me control of the mines. I got loyalty over 50 % i both towns and still dont work.

Is this Wildfire you're playing? If so, I've heard there are a whole new host of issues concerning the mines so really couldn't be of much help.

Talk to them direct instead of friendly.
If that doesn't help you should have done that when first talking to them.
Yes, Wildfire in its current state is a joke.

Just came to mind, I don't think it'll be of help, but perhaps you haven't taken care of 'the hicks' yet ?

Funny,since I changed my monitor to a 25'' I haven't had a single lock up using the 5.0.Not a single patch used!
Even the I8 SAM site map works great!
Every miner is obedient to our commands (after all,we're tough and ugly mercs,not sissies who came to have a little chat in the country)
What I do is take the IMP then hire 10 AIMs for a day(my usual roster contains Wolf,Fox,Grizzly,Lynx,Ice,Blood,Magic,Spider,Reaper and Shadow) for just over 30,000 $, and conquer all 5 towns and the 3 SAM sites till 23.59 on day one.
I have all the money I need to extend contracts indefinitely afterwards.
Not even that Calvin moron refuses to turn over the income from the mine,'cause loyalty is always over 30% once you've taken a city and delivered the battles in the next one(in the next hour).Mind I only use squad leaders with leadership under 40(Reaper,Lynx,Shadow,IMP)-plus Ira to talk to Father Walker.
I had no refusal.No failure.No bug or lock up!

SO,perhaps a change of optics and/or playing style would be adviseble for some of us...

I am playing Wildfire and have same story for that damn head miner in Chitzina. He said that 4 or so miners not found. Hmm, as you guys said, maybe I will try to come down to the mines. I've done it, but I only collect silvers there first time. Perhaps I might have to fight some big craps downunder.
Loyalty is not the solution. Mine is 67%.

@AZAZEL: nice team. I will try in my 2nd game (I am playing the first JA2 game Very Happy )

I arrived to this dream team after some 3 years of playing.And to these campaigns.Not adviseable for beginners,especially in Wildfire.
But good luck anyway!
