[[File:ore_sprite_preview.png|right]]'''Ores''' are left behind after [[mining]] certain varieties of [[stone]]. Ore can be [[smelter|smelted]] to create [[bar]]s of pure [[metal]] or combined to create [[alloy]]s. Many ores are quite valuable as mined without being refined, and a [[mason]] or [[stone crafter]] can work them the same as any stone.  However, ores fall into the [[economic stone]] category, and so must be designated for non-restricted use in the {{k|z}}-[[Status|stone]] menu. Others can be combined when initially smelted into alloys, while others must first be made into bars of pure metal and then ''those'' combined to create the desired alloy - see the [[alloy]] article for details.

Most ores are [[fire-safe]] material.  Some are also [[magma-safe]].
