 """
 Simulate Dogecoin mining by finding a hash that meets the difficulty target.

 Args:
 - block_number (int): The current block number.
 - transactions (str): The block's transaction data.
 - previous_hash (str): The hash of the previous block.
 - difficulty (int): The number of leading zeros required in the hash.
 - nonce_min (int): Minimum value of nonce.
 - nonce_max (int): Maximum value of nonce.

 Returns:
 - str: The mined hash.
 - int: The successful nonce.
