Just got to the hall of jars in Mutagen, but I can’t work out how to clear mines? Blasting fire at them, batons, javelins - nowt works. Is there any trick for them or items that will do the trick?
Do I just make cheap throwaway creations and sacrifice them?

Essence shield and walk into them. Maybe resistance items too.
I dont know if it works in the remake but in the OG some types of mines you could cheese by activating combat and using speed pods to run past them in one turn
If throwaway creations works, then that is always the most resource efficient way to clear mines. Surprised that this wasn't removed from Mutagen
Cool. Makes it a bit grindy (as need to run back and forth to recharge essence!) but can live with that.
There are 3 different coloured spore batons which deal with their respective mines.
There should be switches to turn off certain chunks of mines in some of the side rooms. You'll need mechanics skills or a lot of living tools to deactivate all the mines. I think there's also a control mind that'll shut off the mines for you in the level, but you'll need to get past a good portion of the mines first to find it. Just keep exploring areas you can reach without triggering any mines and see if you can find any switches.
