Stone is the material that is left behind after Mining. Some mineable layers, however, do not leave behind stone. These fall into the Soil category.
Stone is divided into three key categories:

  1. Metal ore: stone that produces metal bars when smelting.
  2. Economic stone: coal and stone that is used as a flux or has other desirable features.
  3. Other stone: stone that is used for structures and has no special features other than color.
