You should never have a mine or a well in green. Both are only slightly more expensive with very large productions when you put them in yellow.

Secondly, please add up your costs and explain how you get to 171. If you're trusting a warehouse notation over your own math, that's the problem right there.

Please read this thread. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
