Culture survival?

Is anyone aware of any situation where a cultures survival depended on it's ability to mine a certain substance?

It's for fictional purposes so I'm not looking for oil or potash but something more obscure that a small civilization may have to look across the world to find what they are looking for.

Thanks.
