Mini Minesweeper Sudoku (Fun With Sudoku #36)

Mini Minesweeper Sudoku puzzle type: the first time I saw it was in the Japanese Sudoku Championship 2007. This puzzle is one of my oldest creations. Even though the name and size of Sudoku are Mini Sudoku, this puzzle requires quite good thinking. Looking forward to creating a 9x9 Sudoku of this type soon.

 

This Mini Minesweeper Sudoku I am reposting as the 36th Sudoku in the Fun With Sudoku Series.

Rules of Mini Minesweeper Sudoku

Every row, every column, and every 2x3 box in the grid contains two mines (black circles) and each of the digits 1-4 (in example 1-2) exactly once. Every cell containing a digit that matches the total number of mines that can be found in horizontally/ vertically neighboring cells has been highlighted with a grey square.
