'''Ores''' are patches of valuable minerals embedded in stone. To be used at all they must be harvesting using a [[Hand Drill]] or ship-mounted [[Drill]] and then refined within a [[Refinery]].  Once refined, they yield one type or another of [[Raw Materials]] which can be used within an [[Assembler]] to construct [[Components]].

'''Ore''' is a basic resource item, usually obtained by mining [[Asteroid]]s. Using a [[Hand Drill]] or ship-mounted [[Drill]] will destroy the rock and release the Ores as objects in the world to be collected. While useless on its own, Ore can be processed in a [[Refinery]], [[Arc Furnace|Basic Refinery]], or [[Survival Kit]] to be turned into a useful [[Material]].

Ores have a variety of appearances and rarities which are annotated below. Usually the best way to identify a particular ore is by the use of an [[Ore Detector]] (either one attached to a ship or the one built into the Hand Drill), which will put the name of the ore on-screen in approximately the center of the ore patch.

== Appearance and Identification ==
 +
Identifying ore patches purely by sight can be frustrating, especially if there are two similar ores next to one another (such as Platinum and Silicon). It is for this reason that an [[Ore Detector]] is always highly recommended for the initial identification process. The Hand Drill has a small Ore Detector built in, whereas a ship-based Ore Detector has a larger detection radius. This will put the name of the ore on the [[HUD]] in approximately the center of the ore patch. However, once you have identified the vein you wish to obtain, it can often be more effective to rely on sight to guide your mining, and so a [[Spotlight]] is almost always useful for this purpose, to more easily see where one vein ends and another begins.

Each ore (including [[Stone]]) yields some sort of useable material once it has been refined within a [[Refinery]]. Each ore has exactly one type of material that it produces, at various rates of efficiency; e.g. 1000 kg of [[Uranium Ore]] will not produce 1000 kg of [[Uranium Ingot|Uranium Ingots]].  Various data on the [[Raw Materials]] refining production are shown below.

Ore is a basic resource item, usually obtained by mining Asteroids. Using a Hand Drill or ship-mounted Drill will destroy the rock and release the Ores as objects in the world to be collected. While useless on its own, Ore can be processed in a Refinery, Basic Refinery, or Survival Kit to be turned into a useful Material.

Appearance and Identification

Identifying ore patches purely by sight can be frustrating, especially if there are two similar ores next to one another (such as Platinum and Silicon). It is for this reason that an Ore Detector is always highly recommended for the initial identification process. The Hand Drill has a small Ore Detector built in, whereas a ship-based Ore Detector has a larger detection radius. This will put the name of the ore on the HUD in approximately the center of the ore patch. However, once you have identified the vein you wish to obtain, it can often be more effective to rely on sight to guide your mining, and so a Spotlight is almost always useful for this purpose, to more easily see where one vein ends and another begins.

See the images and descriptions in the table below for more information on each ore.

A sample of Scrap Metal

While technically not a mineral, it behaves just like the other ores. Scrap is acquired by drilling Blocks or grinding damaged blocks.

Refining

Each Ore (including Stone) yields some sort of usable Material once it has been refined within a Refinery or Basic Refinery. Each Ore (except for Stone) has exactly one type of Material that it produces, at various rates of efficiency; e.g. 1000 kg of Uranium Ore will not produce 1000 kg of Uranium Ingots. See each type of refiner (Refinery, Basic Refinery, Survival Kit) for their conversion tables.
