How to unlock the Master Miner achievement in Microsoft Treasure Hunt - Definitive Guide

This achievement requires upgrading your pickaxe Belt from the starting max of 2 up to 10. Along the way, you'd have to purchase the upgrades of 4, 6, 8, and then 10, after which the achievement will unlock.

Upgrades can be offered for purchase in the Mummy Shop which comes after level 1 and then after levels that end in 5 and 0:

The Shop will always offer individual use Pickaxes, Dynamite, and Maps in addition to the Amulet of Rebirth and a random item that can be any of the upgrades you currently need (Pickaxe Belt, Dynamite Bag, Map Tube, the 4th/5th Heart) OR a pack of shields, as seen here. Upgrades are kept when you die so you can work on them over multiple runs through the game.

The Pickaxe Belt, Dynamite Bag, and Map Tube upgrades double in cost starting at 1000 gold; the 10 Pickaxe Belt would be the 4th upgrade on that path and therefore cost 8,000 gold. The three non-Heart upgrades are somewhat consistent so along the way, you'd also be upgrading the Dynamite Bag and Map Tube a similar number of times.

I had an issue where the game would get stuck in a loop where I was only offered packs of shields and never upgrades that I got out of by resetting app data and only playing offline. During my offline-only playthrough, I was only offered packs of shields a few times and I never got stuck in the loop. Also, you see zero annoying video ads while playing offline.
