Depending on the hardness of the wall compared to the quality of your tool and your strength, you will start to mine that wall or will receive an error message such as the following. Messages that occur while mining (each message means you need 10-15 more Mining ability to mine succesfully):
You don't even manage to scratch that rock.
That rock is very much too hard for you to mine.
That rock is much too hard for you to mine.
That rock is slightly too hard for you to mine.
That rock is just slightly too hard for you to mine.
