Miner concern crossword clue

9 Down · WSJ Crossword, November 10, 2026 · 3 letters

Answer

ORE

ORE (3 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Miner concern” is ORE. It appears as 9 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of November 10, 2026, a Tuesday puzzle titled “Cell Division” by George Jasper, and it fills 3 squares running top to bottom from row 1, column 10 of the 15×15 grid.

The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with O and ends with E, and contains 2 vowels and 1 consonant. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Tuesday puzzles stay approachable with light wordplay, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
